Slanted in Stockholm: Stockholm Surfboard Club

When visiting Stockholm in the summer of 2021, we took a close look at the contemporary design scene. We were happy to meet great designers from the local creative scene, among them Stockholm Surfboard Club!

Stockholm Surfboard Club was founded 2019 by surfboard shaper and designer Manne Glad. Years prior to this, Manne’s explorative approach within art, music, and craft attracted founder and Creative Director at Acne Studios, Jonny Johansson, who brought Manne to work with him. Their mutual obsession for surfboards sparked the idea of creating a space to explore the past, present, and future of surf culture, art, and fashion—all together.

Stockholm Surfboard Club’s work can be found in the Slanted Magazine #39—Stockholm. Additionally we shot a video interview to talk about their attitude and view of things. Take a look at our new issue and the video platform to encounter new ways of design thinking!
