THE STORY Based on all the features of a hallway, our AW17 collection includes a series of products that meet the many challenges of the entrance and unite strong materials with a clean and timeless look. The hallway is the entrance of the home, a passageway that gathers many different functions all in one place. This is where you prepare for the upcoming day and store many of the belongings you use daily, such as outerwear, shoes and bags. The hallway sets the stage for the rest of the home and is the place where guests are invited inside for an evening in good company. The hallway is...

THE STORY With a vibrant and dynamic surface, the Kubus collection in burnished copper features a distinct character that takes us back to where it all started - to the first original Kubus candleholder designed by architect Mogens Lassen in burnished copper in the 1960s. Mogens Lassen's classic Kubus candleholder first achieved its final form in 1962, after Lassen spent years fine-tuning an iron prototype that stood on his desk. Mogens Lassen loved to experiment with new shapes and functions; he was a perfectionist and his sense of proportion and mathematics was flawless: Each individual...

D ESI GN Mogens Lassen 1975 / by Lassen 2017 Inspired by the Conekt table, the Conekt Bench resizes Mogens Lassen’s design to place it in a new context. With an exquisite focus on details, the L shaped brackets make an eye-catching feature, while the bench’s square frame legs create a slim silhouette that has a light and timeless expression. The Conekt Bench is available with a cushion and free-hanging back rest in both textiles or leather that add softness and more organic forms to the finished design. P. 1

DESIGN Mogens Lassen 1943 /by Lassen 2017 FRAME SHOE CABINET As an addition to our existing Frame modules, the Frame Shoe Cabinet adds a new function that makes it an excellent choice for the hallway. With its characteristic cubic frame, the shoe cabinet is based on the same design as the existing Frames, but with new dimensions that makes it even more useful for storing your shoes. Placed on the wall, the Frame Shoe Cabinet is not occupying floor space, which makes it an ideal storage solution for the small hallway.

FRAME RAILS AND DIVIDERS With Frame Rail, it is now possible to use Frame in a more functional hallway setup for your jackets, bags and other accessories. The sharp corners and black metal of the rail create a clean graphic expression, that complements the entire hallway setup. Frame Rail is available in three sizes to fit different Frame modules. The Frame Divider is designed to fit into Frame 35 and 42 and divide each module in nine small spaces, perfect for storing hats, gloves and other accessories.

Frame Hangar and Stropp loop are both functional add-ons to the Frame Rail, designed to hold your outerwear as well as bags. The black Stropp loops in leather provide a soft contrast to the metal rail and are ideal for holding keys, bags and scarves. The sleek metal coathanger called Hangar complements the hallway setup with a slim and minimalistic design.

MATC H B OX AND M ATC HBOX COVER Taking inspiration from the AW17 colour palette, three new Matchbox shades have been added in plum, green and light grey, perfect for adding a dash of colour near your Kubus candleholder. Matchbox cover in cool grey is also added to the collection, which offers new options for mixing and matching covers and matchboxes.

DESIGN Mogens Lassen 1962 KUBUS COLLECTION With a vibrant and almost dynamic surface, the Kubus collection in burnished Copper features a distinct character that takes us back to where it all started, to the first original Kubus candleholder designed by Mogens Lassen in burnished copper in the 1960s. A special production process controls and creates the patination of the surface and create the highly unique, dark-tinted burning of the copper that adds new authenticity to the Kubus products and reflects the excellent craftsmanship.

KUBUS SNUFFER With reference to the iconic Kubus candleholders, the Kubus Snuffer in black is an essential addition to the collection. Avoid drips and wax stains and keep your candleholder pristine by using the snuffer instead of blowing out the candles. With the same cubic metal frame and side length as the Kubus 8 candleholder, the snuffer is designed to be showcased as a natural extension to your candleholder

VIEW As a natural extension of the existing View mirror collection, the new format meets the demand for a smaller mirror, generating new possibilities for uses in small spaces and on smaller surfaces. With its discreet and lightly floating thin metal frame, the View collection is a timeless example of Scandinavian design that allows the mirror to represent the fundamental motif.

The Remind Message Board uniquely combines form and function with its discreetly floating metal frame that forms the setting for invitations, photos and notes. Round metal magnets keep your important papers together in the right place and contrast with the stringent cubic silhouettes we know from Kubus and View collections. Remind’s surface is crafted from black stained ash, providing an elegant finish that makes the message board attractive even when empty. P. 19

Dusty and understated shades of nature’s own colours are the inspiration for the new Flow Cushions introduced in a new textile and colour scheme. The soft graphic cushions are perfect for bringing your sofa to life by adding a splash of colour. With the same cool understated pattern, as Mogens Lassen’s Flow wallpaper, one clearly senses his desire to combine the linear with more organic shapes.

DESIGN Flemming Lassen 1938 MY OWN CHAIR The new grey-green colour adds a timeless and calm expression to Flemming Lassens sculptural My Own Chair, originally designed in 1938. It was not put into production at the time and stayed with the architect in private for the rest of his life. Keeping its somewhat edgy and modern look to this day, My Own Chair perfectly highlights Flemming Lassen's love of rounded shapes, simple forms, precise detailing and functionality.
