Stig Leander’s idea for the Leander cradle came about from a real need in real life. Someone in the family had twins and it was difficult to take care of both children at the same time. On the whole, the real world is the basis for Stig Leander’s work. By observing the life of children, he designs furniture that speaks and gives room for experience and development. With an education in craftsmanship and a portion of practical sense, Stig Leander has gained an understanding of the material’s qualities and possibilities.
