The essence of Swedish design is a concept that also drove the architectural design of the mid-twentieth century. It is the idea that man must learn to blend into the natural world. The roots of the concept of biophilic design were well underway as artists explored the intersection of man and nature. They represented man-made elements with hard lines and geometric shapes. The natural world was represented by colors and curvy shapes.
