Every design for Gnosjö

Gnosjö is the main town of Gnosjö municipality and a well-known part of the Småland landscape, a district that has given its name to the whole enterprising spirit that marks the area. A will to work and nature meet here in a town where the lakes are never far away.

Many carry with them the feeling of summers by the water, of evenings when Gnosjösjön lies smooth and still. On the map you quickly recognise Hagasjön and Sjöarpasjön, and the smaller mirrors of water — Gärdessjön, Totarpagölen and Lindögölen — scattered through the forest around the town. It is a landscape you learn by heart without noticing.

Seeing your own district rendered as a pattern of roads, lakes and blocks stirs something – the memory of where you grew up, of streets you cycled and shores you swam from. The shirt with the map of Gnosjö becomes a small way of carrying that feeling of home onward, wherever you go.
