The Home of Hans Bølling

Introducing The House of Hans Bølling: an exhibition in homage to one of the Danish Modern era’s greatest designers. The exhibition recreates Bølling’s home, living room, and study, presenting a collection of memorabilia and sketches that explore his iconic spirit, curiosity and creativity.

Hans Bølling’s new range consists of a lounge chair, stool and coffee table, which continue his iconic design line of powerful modern simplicity with honest and playful twists. Laying the foundation for timeless designs, the furniture is built to last in Denmark at our 5th generation workshop.

The exhibition is curated by architect and artist Sara Martinsen, who shares Bølling’s passion for natural materials and focuses on the human connection to these.

The furniture is created in collaboration with AHEC, from sustainable American hardwood which places redwood, cherry and maple in an inspiring new context and showcases their natural hues and characteristics.

AHEC

The essence of the Danish Golden age of design is rejuvenated, strengthened and refined in Hans Bølling’s new range, consisting of a lounge chair, stool and coffee table. These pieces were designed in partnership with the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC), using and reimagining red oakwood, cherry wood and maple wood to provide unique hues, tones and depth that harness the beauty of the natural world.

In these latest designs, the passion and care for sustainable wood has taken an even greater relevance as American hardwoods have been used to provide a more sustainable choice than high-demand white European oak. For over 30 years AHEC has been at the forefront of wood promotion in Europe, successfully building a distinctive and creative brand for US hardwoods.

OEO Studio worked on the renovation of a luxury condominium apartment of 200 m2 located at the Opus Arisugawa Terrace & Residence in central Tokyo, Japan.

Hotel Kong Arthur

OEO Studio has made a major refurbishment of the lounge, bar and welcome area of Hotel Kong Arthur in Copenhagen.

The refined new version of F Chair in fumed oak and natural linen and the elegant Arv Chair nurture the Nordic aesthetic with timeless materials.

Iluka

When former Noma and Ramsay chef, Beau Clugston, was to reopen his restaurant in central Copenhagen, he approached Brdr. Krüger. He recognised his own approach to food in the local quality craftsmanship and essential design philosophy in furniture.

F Chair designed by Rasmus Fex, was chosen in natural wood, with a seat in woven black polyester bands, to accompany the charming simplicity of the place, and in a red monochromatic version, to create a seductive atmosphere at all tables.

“My food is about simplicity hidden by a veil of complexity. With that said if the produce isn’t the highest of quality, the simplicity turns to failure”, declares Beau. “This resonates in everything”.

The quality, craftsmanship and complexity of Iluka is hidden by a charming simplicity that might just make this seafood bistro of the future the top-of-the-list place to book.
