alstermo bruk/photographic book 2026

Alstermo Bruk is a Swedish luggage maker with roots in a paper mill founded in Småland in 1804.

Alstermo Bruk commissioned Jonas Lindström to create a photographic book with complete creative freedom. Its 44 black-and-white photographs move between the body, nature, objects and the historic mill in Alstermo. Shot on film, the negatives were developed by hand in Jonas’s darkroom.

The 28-page book measures 260 × 370 mm and is printed in black and white by offset lithography, with an exposed thread-sewn spine. It was produced in an edition of 200 copies.
