Claesson Koivisto Rune

A62 Claesson Koivisto Rune is a Swedish architecture firm founded in 1995 by Mårten Claesson, Eero Koivisto and Ola Rune – all of whom studied at the University of Arts, Crafts & Design (Konstfack) in Stockholm. Over time, they have come to work broadly with architecture and design, and have created buildings, interior design, furniture and more. They have designed products for more than 80 international brands. In 2004, Claesson Koivisto Rune became the first Swedish architecture firm to exhibit in the international department of the Venice Biennale of Architecture.

In 2014, the firm was named Best of the Best in the Red Dot Design Awards, and became the first to receive a Red Dot in five different product categories. They also received the Prince Eugen Medal for outstanding artistic achievement in architecture from HM King Carl XVI Gustaf in 2020. Currently, twelve books have been published about the trio’s work.
