Preben Fabricius, Jorgen Kastholm

Con su acero mecanizado ensamblado
este par de maravillas del diseño higth tech
completamente sin tornillos,
que hacen honor a la trayectoría de estos dos grandes diseñadores.
Sus piezas concuerdan con esta agudeza
en la composición de complicadas estructuras,
muy simples a la vista donde se deja ver el talento sobre la sencillez.

Preben Fabricius, Jorgen Kastholm

2 original high end relax chairs in original brown leather.
These architects made their gratest works together,
but also seperately they achieved some succes.
Kastholm first worked with Arne Jacobsen while Fabricius
was educated by Nils Vodder and Finn Juhl.
These BO 561 models are hard to find top quality products.


Inspired by functionalism and the resoluteness of Scandinavian design, which had a considerable influence on the aesthetics of the sixties, interior designers Preben Fabricius and Jørgen Kastholm devoted themselves to optimising shape, material and ergonomics. In 1961, they founded a studio together which became a birthplace of numerous classics in furnishing history. Their main concern was to clearly state the function of an aesthetic form. This principle resulted in lasting symbols of the modern age.
