designers uno & östen kristiansson, two renowned swedish designer brothers who were active primarily in the mid-20th century. Born in 1925 and 1927, respectively, they distinguished themselves for their contribution to scandinavian design, particularly in the fields of lighting and mirrors. In 1950, uno founded the company luxus in vittsjö, sweden, and soon brought östen on board as well. Luxus became known for producing lamps, mirrors, and furniture that combined modern aesthetics with everyday functionality. Their style reflected the principles of nordic modernism: clean lines, natural materials, and attention to detail. The brothers often worked with teak but also experimented with innovative materials such as glass, acrylic, and plastic. Their lamps were characterized by soft shapes and sophisticated plays of light, while their mirrors—often with bentwood frames—are now highly sought after by collectors. In addition to luxus, the brothers also collaborated with other local companies, such as vittsjö möbel, helping to strengthen the region’s manufacturing identity. The kristianssons’ creations embody the simple, timeless elegance of scandinavian design. Luxus remained active until the 1970s, leaving a legacy that continues to influence contemporary design today. Pieces designed by uno & östen kristiansson are considered iconic and highly prized in the international vintage market.
