In 2022, as part of Helsingborg’s H22 Expo, the southern Swedish city profiled new timber talent in the form of the Skogen, an exhibition tie-in with Ingka, one of the IKEA family of companies. 

A mix of student projects from many corners of the world, and a competition aimed at reconnecting design to nature’s role in everyday life, all three winning designs were on display. Here, the three winners, Marcus Badman, Emma Jurczynski and Otis Harley, write about their respective projects.
