4. Nudient

The story of lifestyle brand Nudient started in 2016 when friends Pontus Krusing, Max Andersson, and Vidar Sjöqvist couldn't find protective cases for their phones that were both durable and stylish – so the trio decided to start making them themselves! In addition to covers and other phone accessories, the Swedish company also provides stylish headphone cases and laptop sleeves.

5. Anglepoise

Anglepoise is a traditional English lighting manufacturer whose top-quality architectural lighting is recognized globally. The first Anglepoise lamp, Anglepoise 1227, was designed in 1932 by car industry engineer George Carwardine who created the unique spring mechanism still in use today.

Thanks to this brilliant mechanism, the lamps can be adjusted and moved with a light touch. Anglepoise's lamps are made to withstand both the test of time and everyday use, and the brand's selection includes both classically understated lamps and lamps that tickle the fancy of those in search of something a bit bolder.
