malmstens alumni - who we are?
Malmstens Alumni is a nonprofit association started in 2019 on the initiative of Ulf Brunne, master cabinetmaker, furniture conservator and former Head of Department at Malmstens Linköpings University. As a freestanding association Malmstens Alumni aims to bring together a diverse group of professionals with the common denominators Malmstens and wood, including cabinetmakers, upholsterers, conservators, luthiers/guitar builders and designers.
OUR GOAL
As a wood craft artisans node and alumni cluster our goal is to strengthen the alumni network both nationally and internationally, promoting life long learning and creating inclusive further education opportunities. We aim to inspire professional networking and collaboration between all the Malmstens alumni to lay ground for creative teamwork within the field of furniture studies. By organising workshops, masterclasses, seminaries and symposiums in fine cabinetmaking, furniture conservation, furniture design and uppholstery, Malmstens Alumni aims to encourage research in the field of wood, furniture history, materials, techniques and design to enhance the status of handcraft in the meta-modern society.
