CARL HANSEN & SØN
THE COLLECTORS One designer, three collectors. Recognized as the father of modern Danish design, Kaare Klint designed icons such as the Faaborg Chair and the Safari Chair. In all his work, he insisted on clear, logical design, clean lines, the best materials, and superb craftsmanship. Timeless by nature, his honest designs still resonate with succeeding generations and keep demanding space in modern interiors. We have asked three design collectors about their passion for Danish design and to designate their favorite Klint piece.
Hanni Gohr & Rune Glifbjerg Model & Professional skateboarder and founder of skatepark architecture design company Glifberg – Lykke Kaare Klint equals the combination of craftmanship and impeccable quality. The thought of the many hours that lie in each piece of furniture gives them soul and personality. Knowing that both design and production are made by craftsmen who really worship the craft and methods is always important to us. We both especially love our Addition sofas by Klint. Our apartment is filled with durable materials such as brass, steel, oak and concrete. This creates a universe where materials of contrast meet. Cold and warm, hard and soft. For this reason, our choice of furniture intentionally complements the many contradictions. The beauty of the Addition sofas lies in the warm and soft expression, which is in perfect contrast to the angular and masculine furniture in our living room and ‘classic meets modern’ which was the main inspiration for our home.
