Danish Living returns with a new line-up of designers & brands
Bringing the very latest selection of Danish design to the London Design Fair 2019
Denmark’s rich design heritage dates back to the mid-20th century, where designers such as Hans Wegner and Arne Jacobsen emerged, combining advanced technologies with ideas of simplicity and functionalism to design buildings, furniture and accessories. The design reflects the Nordic environment and climate often using sustainable, locally sourced materials mixed with old craft traditions of silverware, ceramics, etc. Combined with a dose of hygge, the unique Danish design traditions will be brought to life at London Design Fair 2019. Danish Living is more than just a showroom, it is a place for everyone to relax, enjoy a drink and get inspired by the stylish Danish way of living.
”We are proud to yet again have a strong Danish footprint with our official country pavilion Danish Living at the London Design Fair’s 2019 edition. The selected pieces showcased embody Danish values such as sustainability, functionality and playfulness. In that way, they keep a long, beautiful tradition alive.” Mr. Lars Thuesen, Ambassador of Denmark to the UK
