[2] Design House Stockholm was founded in 1992 by Anders Färdig,[3] who had previously owned the brands Höganäs and Boda Nova.

[9] Over 60 independent designers are represented in the company’s collection; including internationally known names such as Claesson Koivisto Rune, Form Us With Love,[10] Harri Koskinen and Timo Sarpaneva.

The company also has distinguished itself by often choosing young, promising designers in addition to more established names,[11] such as Family Chairs[12] by Lina Nordqvist, "Toupie" salt & pepper shakers by Jessika Källeskog and not least "Block Lamp" by Harri Koskinen.

In 2013, Design House Stockholm launched a collection for the kitchen based on Elsa Beskow’s illustrations.

[13] Design House Stockholm currently has eight concept shops within retail stores: Nordiska Kompaniet in Stockholm and Gothenburg; Selfridges, Oxford Street in London, Frankfurt, Jönköping, and Båstad; Zinc Details in San Francisco; and Urban Home in Bangkok.
