Fiberspace Gallery in Stockholms SoFo district is textile heaven

The Fiberspace Gallery in the SoFo district of Stockholm is nothing short of impressive because of its textile exhibitions showcased by textile artists from all over the world.

The gallery presents unique art pieces by emerging designers that are hard to see anywhere else. The exhibits of the fiber artwork change seasonally. As a consequence, enthusiasts visit the space regularly to see the new curation.

It is 2015 when Fiberspace Gallery opens in one of the trendiest neighborhoods of Stockholm. Trendy shops and restaurants line the streets of the SoFo district. Tourists and locals frequently flock here to absorb Stockholm’s rich design culture.

The gallery’s interior design and exterior design are minimal and look like a clothing shop from the outside. In other words, this aesthetic fits the textile theme. The museum’s curators place each tapestry carefully in the space. That allows the audience to fully understand and interpret the fabric artists’ masterpieces. Some notable textile artists who have had their works displayed at Fiberspace include Annie Johansson and Mirjam Lagergren. The current showcase that is going on is Emelie Rondahl and her handwoven rya textiles, which are all weaved from long strands of different colored yarn.

The gallery holds workshops, lectures, and presentations by fiber artists. At Fiberspace they present their work and talk about the detailed creation process. In addition, the gallery recently started an online collection of exhibitions and podcasts by various textile journal artists.

Going to the art gallery in the center of Stockholm is a unique adventure that you do not want to miss. Participating in the exhibitions and seminars at Fiberspace Gallery will surely be a fun activity.

Hobo Hotel, designed by German firm Studio Aisslinger. This project is much smaller in scale than the Downtown Camper across the square, making it feel much more intimate and easygoing. We definitely feel a casual Venice Beach California vibe enhanced by the scattered vintage and reclaimed furnishings. We love the little vertical garden growing young plants and the use of more mature plants throughout the entire project.
