DescriptionDescription: Sweden’s textile industry was in crisis, and in 1970 ten textile designers formed 10-gruppen (the 10 group), joining forces to reach out to producers and consumers with their colourful patterns. The members of the group worked together around a big table, but each one designed patterns after their own ideas. Gunila Axén’s Hundar was part of the group’s first collection.
