Interior Cluster Sweden
About
Interior Cluster Sweden (ICS) is a national cluster organisation based in Sweden that brings together companies, designers, academia, and public stakeholders within the furniture and interior design industry. Our mission is to strengthen the competitiveness, sustainability, and innovation capacity of the sector through strategic collaboration.
ICS operates as a knowledge and innovation hub, focusing on the green and digital transformation of the industry. We support our 100+ members in transitioning towards circular business models, resource efficiency, data-driven innovation, and traceability across the value chain — from raw materials to finished interiors.
Through participation in regional, national, and European projects (such as FOREST 4.0, ENTRUST, STELLA, and APPEND), ICS acts as a bridge between industry and research, promoting cross-sectoral cooperation and smart specialization.
Our activities include:
– Facilitating partnerships and project development
– Supporting SMEs in sustainability and digitalisation efforts
– Organising workshops, labs, and knowledge exchange formats
– Advocating for the sector in policy and innovation arenas
ICS is rooted in the values of the New European Bauhaus — Beautiful - Sustainable - Together, and works actively to position Sweden as a frontrunner in sustainable interior and furniture innovation.
