Dezeen teamed up with Swedish brand Stolab on a three-part video series exploring the brand's solid-wood furniture, as well as its heritage, values and approach to sustainability. Watch the three films here.
Called Stolab Stories, the series documents Stolab's story of becoming a homegrown brand with a deep appreciation for nature, craftsmanship and a family atmosphere at its headquarters in Smålandsstenar, Sweden.
The series comprised interviews with representatives across the Stolab brand, ranging from factory workers to those in positions of management. Included in the videos were interviews with long-term collaborators and designers of signature Stolab pieces.
The collaboration came about as Stolab celebrated 80 years of its Lilla Ã…land chair in 2022, which was designed by Carl Malmsten in 1942. Watch all three videos below:

The first instalment of the series introduced Stolab's most notable pieces of furniture, including the Lilla Ã…land chair designed by Malmsten, which is one of the brand's most recognisable chairs and has been a mainstay of its output since it was first produced.
Stolab released a special edition of its Windsor-style Lilla Ã…land chair to mark its 80th anniversary during Stockholm Design Week 2022, which includes a version finished in smoked oak oil as well as a series of unique editions painted in bright colours.
Other products featured in the video include the Arka armchair designed by Yngve Ekström in 1955, the bent-wood Miss Holly armchair ...
