Swedish furniture designer Alf Svensson (1929-1992) was particularly active in the 1950s through the ‘70s, designing for a variety of influential manufacturers. During the 1950s, like many of his Swedish and Scandinavian contemporaries, Svensson utilized traditional materials such as richly grained teak and rosewood and leather to create pieces that were typically designed in the Scandinavian modern style.
