Hyfer Objects
Redefining the world of design
“We take what others discard, waste and forgotten fragments, and elevate them into bold expressions of beauty, purpose and possibility”
Hyfer, derived from the Swedish name for Hyphae, the network of fungal mycelium that form the foundation of the natural world. Unseen until a mushroom appears, symbolizing the hidden potential in waste materials that often go unnoticed. Hyfer Objects look deeper into what we discard and elevate the materials into contemporary design furniture.
The design studio is co-founded by Scandinavian trio Kristina Tjäder, Sara Stendebakken and Axel Anderson, united by a respect for nature. Anchored in sculptural minimalism, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and sharing a vision that design is about conscious creation and timeless responsibility.
Hyfer Objects is inspired by nature’s silent intelligence, its ability to transform decay into fertility, endings into beginnings. In the forest nothing is waste, fallen leaves nourish forests, every dead tree a cradle for new life. Studying the overlooked; offcuts from manufacturing, forgotten materials, discarded fragments. In them, there are stories waiting to be told again.

Connection
“Like hyphae, we bridge connections - between materials, people, ideas, and time”
Every decision, design, and relationship is part of a larger ecosystem. This means Hyfer Objects collaborate openly, think systemically, and design not just for function or beauty, but for relationships between materials, environments, and users. We have a network of producers and material developers of stone, wood, print filaments and more. Do you have sustainable materials or exciting ideas to share?

Adaptation
“Fungi thrive in complex, changing environments. So do we”
Hyfer Objects was born from the idea to work with nature, not against it. Adaptable in nature, staying flexible and responsive to change in how materials and emerging production methods are used and interpreted. Hyfer Objects creates bespoke pieces from sustainable materials perfectly adapted to your projects and needs.

Transformation
“Decay is not death - it is transformation”
Products are not fixed, they are paused in a continuous cycle. Embracing modularity, reuse, repairability, and future reincarnations of the designs. Believing every object carries potential beyond its first life, transforming waste into interior masterpieces.
