Family treasures and inheritance are the main source of inspiration for Swedish designer Lisa Hilland. Inheriting things also means inheriting craftsmanship, knowledge, and stories. The collection “My Granddaughter’s Cabinet” is designed to be passed on from one generation to the next. Lisa has chosen birch as my main material because of its lustrous and silky surface. The last tree to be seen in our mountains before the vegetation disappears altogether in the high altitudes, birch can stand strong winds and the cold Nordic winters.  “My Granddaughter’s Cabinet reflects my views as a designer on sustainability, but also my great love for my daughters Silje and Elsa. They give me inspiration and meaning in everything I do.”
