Bedow is a design and branding studio situated in Stockholm, where for nearly two decades it has built a reputation for progressive work and a roster of international clients. Its work moves beyond what is often lazily categorised as Scandinavian style, bringing together moments of hand-drawn details, design craft and artfulness to create simple, thoughtful, practical design that’s easy to engage with and comfortable to have around.

Since 2005, we’ve worked to build strategies and craft solutions for our collaborators, applying reason and rationality to the process of design, finding satisfaction in the simple acts of thinking and making.
But reason and rationality have limitations. Work only feels worthwhile when we combine rationality and craft with ingenuity, to shake off anything that feels formulaic.
Over the years we’ve won a few prestigious design awards from the Art Directors Club, Cannes Lions, D&AD, One Show, Type Directors Club and more. It’s not why we design, but it’s flattering when our peers in the industry feel we’re pushing the discipline forward.
