Founded in 1968 by Tom Ahlström (b.1943) and Hans Ehrich (b.1942), both of whom had previously studied design and metalwork at Konstfackskolan in Stockholm. Today A & E design is one of Swedens leading industrial desgin consultancies. Right from the beginning, A&E DESIGN focused on designing useful every day products, rather than concentrating on short-lived fashion trends. Plastics of all kinds have always played the leading part in
A&E DESIGNs creative work, making this design consultancy one of the most experienced plastic designers on the market.
Beside the design of e.g. toothbrushes, dishwashing brushes, paint brushes, queue-ticket dispensers, electrical and medical appliances, lightning fixtures and furniture of all kinds, A&E DESIGN has specialized in design for disability. A&E DESIGN is renowned for innovative product development, including meticulous working models, prototypes and mock ups, all produced in the company's own model work shop. A&E DESIGNs product proposals usually turn out to be extremely competitive on the market. The famous Jordan dishwashing brush, for instance, has already been sold in more than sixty million items.
