A poetic documentary on architect Carl Nyrén—memory, design, and legacy.
About this Event

Join us for a special screening of this intimate and visually rich documentary by filmmaker Sven Blume. Crooked Lines of Beauty offers a deeply personal portrait of renowned Swedish architect Carl Nyrén, weaving together archival footage, family history, and reflections on a life devoted to design. Through Blume’s lens, the film moves between the private and the professional, revealing both the humanity and complexity behind a celebrated body of work.

Both poetic and quietly moving, this film invites audiences to experience architecture not just as form, but as memory, legacy, and lived experience.
