Mersmak Kryddor
“Both Fredrik and I are fond of classic botanical school charts, with their informative illustrations of flowers and leaves. Who isn’t? But there is also something more to them. They tell the story of a time when people picked flowers to create their own herbaria and learned about the importance and essential role of plants and animals. This feels highly relevant today, as biodiversity becomes increasingly important. (For the past two summers, I have studied botanical illustration at the University of Gothenburg. It has been very inspiring and has deepened my interest in a more scientific way of looking at the forms and details of plants.)
In Sju Blomster, featuring the pollinating honeybee, and in the Mersmak motif (as well as Grönsaker), I clearly draw inspiration from this history and from classic school charts.” Hanna Werning
The Mersmak Kryddor collection includes kitchen towels, linen napkins, cushion covers and paper napkins. Mersmak Kryddor was developed in collaboration with artist and pattern designer Hanna Werning.
“It was very easy to say yes to collaborating with Fredrik and Axlings. There was an immediate sense of joy and ease in our first meeting. I am drawn to linen as the magnificent base material it is, but also to Axlings’ balanced and playful colour palette.
(Linen has a special place in my heart. It is an ancient material that people have worked with, used, braided and woven since time immemorial. I also enjoy growing flax myself, mainly for its delicate flowers and beautiful seed heads.)
The collaboration with Axlings has developed very naturally over the past year. I like to think of it as a locally grown project. Fredrik is energetic and positive and often stops by my studio, where we sit down and brainstorm ideas together. He usually has a wish or a starting point that I then develop further.” Hanna Werning
