1 Begivenheder i onecollection Events in onecollection Neocon in Chicago, June Brayton and Steelcase displayed the Finn Juhl furniture beautifully. Bernhardt showed the Bessi chair and ICF showed the mobile screens from Erik Boisen which have been a success in USA. The management of onecollection were all present at the Neocon fair and discussed business as well as plans for the future. Neocon I Chicago, juni På både Braytons og Steelcase s stande blev Finn Juhls møbler flot udstillet, hos Bernhardt var det Bessi stolen og ICF udstillede Erik Boisens mobile skærmvægge, der har været succesfulde i USA. Hele onecol- Hvad er onecollection? Et år er gået siden onecollection så dagens lys og for andet år i træk udstiller vi på messen i Bella Center på stand B5-112, men hvad er onecollection egentlig? onecollection er et samarbejde mellem Erik Boisen A/S og Hansen og Sørensen ApS. Sammen har vi en fælles vision om at udbrede kendskabet til de bedste arkitekter og deres produkter i hele verden. onecollection fordobler på en gang vores netværk, erfaringer og muligheder. Der er utrolig mange muligheder i den verden vi lever i vi skal blot bringe os i stand til at udnytte flere og det gør vi bedre ved at samarbejde. Derfor onecollection! What is onecollection? A year has passed since onecollection saw daylight and for the second time we are exhibiting together in Bella Center stand B6-112, but what is onecollection really about? onecollection is a co-operation between Erik Boisen A/S and Hansen & Sørensen ApS. Together we have a common vision of spreading the knowledge of the best architects and their products to the whole world. At one time Onecollection doubles network, experience and possibilities. This world is full of so many opportunities we just have to put ourselves in a better position to use more of these and we think the best way is co-operation. That is why onecollection! lections samlede ledelse var på Neocon, hvor der både blev snakket forretning og lagt fremtidsplaner. Designers Saturday i Oslo, september Med over 1000 besøgende arkitekter i Robert Tandbergs showroom er Designers Saturday i Oslo den mest succesfulde event uden for Danmarks grænser. Fremstød i Rusland, oktober I oktober deltog onecollection hos Design Gallerie Skt. Petersborg sammen med den øvrige danske møbelelite med en flot udstilling for at vække russernes interesse for dansk design.

2 Søren Holst Søren Holst Foersom & Hiort- Lorenzen Sidste år debuterede arkitektparret Peter & Johannes hos Erik Boisen med reolserien MOBILIA. En fritstående serie reoler/skabe til kontorindretning med gennemgående hylder og mulighed for akustisk regulering. Serien er i år fulgt op af en mere lukket version i en kombination af finerede vandrette hylder og malede lodrette flader, der giver et enkelt designudtryk. Foersom & Hiort- Lorenzen Last year the architects Peter & Johannes designed for the first time for Erik Boisen and the result was the shelving system MOBILIA. A freestanding series of shelves and cupboards for office-interior use with through shelving and a possibility of sound regulation via the backwalls of the shelving. The series have this year been followed up by a more closed version of the shelving. A combination of veneered shelves and painted vertical surfaces which presents a simple design expression. Søren har tegnet møbler for Hansen & Sørensen siden starten i Efter en designmæssig pause er Søren i fuld gang med nye spændende tiltag. Blandt andet en helt ny serie lounge-møbler, som vi håber at kunne vise frem på Orgatec i Köln sammen med en ny lufthavnsbænk i Part One-serien. Søren has designed furniture for Hansen & Sørensen since the beginning of After a break designwise Søren is now busy with some new ideas. Among these a new series of lounge-furniture, which we hope to be able to show at the Orgatec Fair in Cologne along with a new airport-bench for the Part One-series. Rasmussen & Rolff Relanceringen af COUPE-stolen i Mk.II-udgave kom sidste år, men sofaen fortjener bedre. I år viser vi den i flot mørkebrunt læder på møbelmessen i Bella Center og håber at det er åbenbart for alle, at COUPE Mk. II er en utrolig veldrejet sofa, som med stor fordel kan anvendes i såvel kontorindretninger som til privat brug. Erla Solveig Oskarsdottir Vi er selvfølgelig undervejs med noget nyt fra vor islandske designers hånd. Foreløbig er det hendes BESSI-stol, der kører ordrer hjem. Erla har med BESSI ramt markedet helt rigtigt. En smuk, komfortabel stol til en rigtig pris. Og så fås den efterhånden i et væld af udførelser, så den let tilpasses situationen. Bedst sælges den med polstret sæde og træryg eller fuldpolstret. Rasmussen & Rolff The re-introduction of the COUPÉ chair in the Mk.II version came last year, but the sofa deserves better. This year we show the sofa, with a beautiful darkbrown leather, at the furniture fair in Bella Center and we hope it is obvious to everyone that COUPÈ Mk. II is an incredible shapely sofa, which can be used for public as well as private use with great advantage. Erla Solveig Óskarsdóttir Of course something new is on the way from the hand of our Icelandic designer. So far her chair BESSI is the one taking orders home. Erla has hit the market right with the BESSI chair. A beautiful and comfortable chair at the right price level. And now it is also available in various executions so it is easily adaptable to the situation. The most successful versions are with an upholstered seat and wooden back or fully upholstered. Kasper Salto Kasper Salto Intet nyt fra Salto i år hos onecollection. Kasper har haft meget travlt med at tegne for en republik, mens vi har glæde af hans smukke SKATER-stol og BONE-bord. SKATER-stolens mest populære udgave er med en tynd indvendig sæde/ryg-polstring i læder, der fremhæver stolens minimalistiske formsprog. No news from Salto at onecollection this year. Kasper has been very busy designing for a republic, in the meantime we benefit from his beautiful SKATER chair and BONE table. The most popular version of the SKATER chair is with a thin innerside leather- upholstery of the shell, which shows off the minimalistic idiom of the chair.

3 Rud Thygesen & Johnny Sørensen Rud Thygesen og Johnny Sørensen har i mere end 25 år tegnet Erik Boisens kollektion og stået for utallige udstillinger. Der har været tale om en hel æra inden for dansk design. Det er helt unikt at en virksomhed og et designteam, har haft et så succesfuldt et samarbejde, som tilfældet har været. Vi glæder os til en fortsættelse af dette. Rud Thygesen & Johnny Sørensen Rud Thygesen og Johnny Sørensen have designed Erik Boisens collection for for more than 25 years as well as they have been in charge of many exhibitions. We are talking about a whole era in the field of Danish design and it is quite unique that a company and a designteam have had such a successful co-operation as the case is here. onecollection look forward to a continuation of this. Henrik Tengler Henrik Tengler ONEN ONEN står for 1 x Nielsen, nemlig Lars Frank Nielsen, der har valgt at træde ud af arkitektfirmaet 3 x Nielsen og i stedet hellige sig design på fuld tid. Lars står for Hansen & Sørensen s NN/-system, der netop er meget aktuelt med flere store projekter bl.a. universitetet i Oslo. En stor udvidelse af mulighederne i NN/-systemet er undervejs og den kan man glæde sig til, for NN/ er i forvejen et formidabelt godt indretningssystem, der efterlader mange flotte projekter og tilfredse kunder i sit kølvand. Her kan nævnes den Danske Ambassade i Berlin, Finansieringsinstituttet for Industri og Håndværk samt Socialforvaltningen i Århus. ONEN ONEN stands for 1 x Nielsen, and that is Lars Frank Nielsen, who has chosen to step out of the architectcompany 3 x Nielsen and instead concentrate on design full time. Lars is the man behind Hansen & Sørensen s NN/-system, which right now is of current interest regarding several large projects e.g. the university in Oslo. A large extension of the possibilities of the NN/-system is underway, and you may look forward to this, as NN/ also now is a formidable interiorsystem, which leaves many beautiful projects and satisfied customers behind. Søren Ulrik Petersen Sørens NEWTON-reol i aluminium er enkel og genial. Den er nu sikret med et lille beslag, så hylderne nu kan tåle endog kraftig belastning! Søren Ulrik Petersen Søren s NEWTON-rack in aluminium is simple and brilliant. The shelves have now been made safer with a small device keeping them from the risk of breaking-off! Henrik har lige rundet de 40 år og er superaktiv som designer for onecollection. Foruden den store TRAIN-bordserie (se omtale andetsteds), har han tegnet en opfølgning til sin ubetinget største succes CHAIRMAN-stolen. Det er C-CHAIR en ny konferencestol, men alligevel klassisk helt i træ med postret sæde og ryg. Stolen fås i ahorn, valnød, bøg eller eg og betrækkes med stof eller læder. C-CHAIR havde snigpremiere i Japan i januar måned, hvor den rejste Japan tyndt og indkasserede mange roser fra forhandlerne. Henrik has just reached the age of 40 and is superactive designing for onecollection. Apart from the comprehensive TRAIN-tableseries (see reference elsewhere), he has designed a follow-up on his absolutely largest success the CHAIRMAN chair. The new chair is the C-CHAIR a new conference chair, but yet classic, in wood with upholstery on seat and back. The chair is available in maple, walnut, beech or oak with upholstery in either fabric or leather. C-CHAIR had a first performance in Japan in January, where it toured the country and was praised highly by the dealers there.

4 Østergade 11 Showroom og bibliotek i stuen bar i kampestenskælderen! Østergade 11 Showroom and library at ground floor bar in the granite boulder basement! Det er nu fire år siden Hansen & Sørensen købte den gamle købmandsgård Harpøths Hus i Ringkøbing og indrettede det til showroom. Ida fra Krøniken har sit barndomshjem lige overfor det gamle hus fra 1790 med de skæve mure bygget i munkesten. Huset var oprindelig købmandsgård, men har siden fungeret som bank, lægebolig, privatbolig og nu showroom og hjemsted for onecollection. Four years have passed since Hansen & Sørensen bought the old grocer s yard Harpøths Hus in Ringkøbing and transformed it into a showroom. The childhood home of Ida from the tv-series Krøniken is right across the old house from 1790 with it s lopsided walls built of monastery stones. Originally the house was a grocer s yard, men later it housed a bank, a doctor s residence, a privat home and now a showroom and domicile of onecollection»det er af stor betydning for os, at vi har et hjemsted med sjæl, når kunder langvejs fra kommer på besøg. For når vi nu har valgt at bo i Ringkøbing, er der altid langt, når kunderne skal besøge os«siger Ivan Hansen.»It is very important to us that we have a domicile with a sole, when customers from far away come visiting. Because we have chosen to live in Ringkøbing, it is always far away when customers want to visit us«says Ivan Hansen.»Men vi tager meget gerne imod besøg, også selv om det kræver en overnatning, for det gør det ofte, når først snakken kommer godt i gang om møbler, og lekturen, historierne og rødvinen kommer på bordet«betror Henrik Sørensen. Henrik Sørensen confides»we enjoy having visitors, also when this means staying overnight, and it mostly does when we get started talking about furniture and the reading, the stories and redwine comes on the table«. I kaminstuen står nemlig en anseelig samling af gamle og nye bøger og magasiner om møbler og de bliver flittigt brugt ikke mindst samlingen af»mobilia«. In the fireplace room is placed quite a large collection of old and new books and magazines about furniture and these are often used, not at least the collection of»mobilia«. Et besøg hos os kan også sluttes af i kælderen, som af husets tidligere ejer blev indrettet som vinkælder og bar med massive kampestensvægge. A visit here may also end in the basement, which the former owner of the house had turned into a winecellar and a bar with solid granite boulders. Vi har dog pyntet bænkene op med en orange vinyl, som vi havde til overs fra en stoleordre til et hospital på Long Island i USA i Kunden var hedengangne George Tanier, der brugte et helt liv på at bringe gode danske designmøbler til USA. For dette fik han i 1969 ridderkorset. Vi holdt meget af George og mindes ham, når vi sætter os i vinylen. We have decorated the benches with orange vinyl, which originally was a left over from a chairorder for a hospital in Long Island in USA in The customer back then was the late George Tanier, who spent his whole life bringing good Danish designfurniture to USA. This work was in 1969 rewarded with the cross of an order of chivalry. We liked George very much and the vinyl reminds us of him.

5 Stelton og onecollection Steltons stand i Bella Center er indrettet af onecollection Stelton and onecollection Stelton s stand in Bella Center has been furnished by onecollection Stelton har for andet år i træk valgt at lade onecollection stå for indretning og opbygning af deres stand i Bella Center. Sidste år var de bærende elementer NN-systemets stramme linjer i kombination med Finn Juhls organisk formede Pelikan-stole. NN-systemet har i øvrigt lagt hylder til diverse butiksdisplays ikke bare for Stelton, men for butikker lige fra San Francisco over Hamburg til Japan. Under dette års møbelmesse er Steltons stand indrettet med arkitekt Henrik Tenglers nye bordsystem TRAIN med søjlefødder i rustfrit stål og bordplade i sort linoleum og valnøddefiner. Stelton has for the second year in a row decided to let onecollection be in charge of the furnishing of the stand in Bella Center. Last year the main theme was the straight lines of the NN/- system in combination with the organic formed Pelican chairs by Finn Juhl. The NN/-system has, by the way, shelved various shopdisplays, not only for Stelton but also for shops right from San Francisco over Hamburg to Japan. This year Stelton s stand is furnished with the new tablesystem TRAIN designed by Henrik Tengler. Tabletops in black linoleum or walnut veneer with pedestal bases in stainless steel. Electric Train Electric Train E-Train arbejdsbord nu med el! E-Train workingtable now electric! NN på UIO Hansen & Sørensen har sammen med vor samarbejdspartner i Norge, Robert Tandberg, Oslo, vundet en stor møbleringsopgave til Universitetet i Oslo.»Vi er meget glade for, at vi endelig har sikret ordren på arbejdsmøbler til Oslo Universitet. Det er det gamle juridiske fakultet fra 1860, der nu bliver nænsomt renoveret«forklarer Henrik Sørensen.»Det er igen NN-systemet, tegnet af Lars Frank Nielsen, som vi vinder en stor opgave med og tilmed i en helt ny version beklædt med overflader i Forbo Linoleum, som er blevet foreslået af projektets interiørarkitekt Anne Berentsen. NN-systemets fritstående vægflader i sort linoleum med blanke bøsninger kommer til at stå i en flot kontrast til de originale bemalede højloftede rum. Vi glæder os til at vise den færdige møblering frem inden sommerferien«nn at UIO Hansen & Sørensen has got a large furnishing assignment for the University in Oslo in co-operation with our co-operation partner in Norway, Robert Tandberg, Oslo.»We are very pleased, that we finally have secured the order for working-furniture for the University in Oslo. It is the old Falculty of Law from 1860, which is going to be gently redone«explains Henrik Sørensen.»Again it is the NN- system designed by Lars Frank Nielsen which is the reason why we win an assignment like this, and this time even in a new version with Forbo Linoleum on all surfaces as suggested by the interior architect of the project Anne Berentsen. The freestanding walls of the NNsystem with black linoleum and bright grids will be a fancy contrast to the originally painted and heighceiling rooms. We look forward to showing the completed furnishing before the summerholidays«. NEJ! Vi ved godt, at det ikke lyder særlig revolutionerende med endnu et arbejdsbord med el-justerbart understel. På trods af dette vover vi alligevel pelsen og introducerer endnu et el-bord, med runde søjler indenfor Train-bordkonceptet, der er tegnet af Henrik Tengler. Det betyder enkelt design, god pris, stor fleksibilitet og mange muligheder. Hansen & Sørensen og Erik Boisen er for første gang gået sammen om udvikling af et møbel og bordene kan derfor købes hos begge firmaer. Electric Train kan ses på One Collections stand under møbelmessen. NO! We do know that we are not going to revolutionize the world with yet another workingtable with an electric adjustable frame. Despite this, we risk our skin and introduce an electric-table, with a pedestal base in the range of the Train-tableconcept designed by Henrik Tengler. This means simple design, a fair price, many possibilities and great flexibility. Hansen & Sørensen and Erik Boisen have for the first time developed a piece of furniture together and therefore the tables are available from both companies. Electric Train is shown at the stand of onecollection during the furniturefair. Train Nu kører toget! Med mere end 9000 forskellige kombinationsmuligheder er TRAIN en standardbordserie ud over det sædvanlige. Den er tegnet af Henrik Tengler, som et logisk koncept, der tillader, at bordene kan benyttes enkeltvist eller sammenkoblede. Der kan frit vælges mellem ti forskellige overflader og 100 standardbordstørrelser. Ben i forchromet stål eller træ, høje eller lave. Søjler i rustfrit eller malet stål i tre højder. Alt dette kombineret med et enkelt design og en lækker håndvenlig kantprofil har gjort bordserien til en øjeblikkelig succes. TRAIN vises både hos onecollection og Stelton under møbelmessen. Train The train leaves! With more than 9000 different possible combinations TRAIN is an outstanding standardtableseries designed by Henrik Tengler, as a logical concept, which allows all tables to be used single or coupled. There are ten different surfaces and 100 standard tablesizes to choose from. Legs in chromed steel or wood, low or tall. Pedestal bases in stainless or painted steel in 3 different heights. All this combined with a simple design and a beautiful hand-friendly edge profile has made the series an instant success. TRAIN is shown both at the stands of onecollection and Stelton during the fair.

6 Nyt»Mobilia«Navnet leder tankerne hen på møbeltidsskrifternes tidsskrift og selv om vi tit drømmer om et nyt Mobilia refereres her til noget ganske andet men i samme kvalitet. New»Mobilia«The name makes you think of the magazine of furnituremagazines and even though we often dream of a new Mobilia, this is something quite different but in the same kind of quality. Johannes Foersom & Peter Hiort-Lorenzen har for Erik Boisen tegnet et meget gennemført opbevaringssystem primært til kontorindretning. Mobilia blev sidste år introduceret som en akustisk væg med hylder udført helt i finer. Den nye udgave er nu ændret til et mere korpuspræget system til en langt mere konkurrencedygtig pris. Materialemæssigt er de gennemgående hylder i lys birk adskilt fra det øvrige korpus, der er malet, hvilket giver serien en visuel lethed. De brede skabe og reoler strammer op og danner ro. Skabene, der er fritstående og velegnede som rumdelere, fås i flere højder og med forskellig indretning med klap, hængemapper og skuffer og bæres altid på et benstel i pulverlakeret stål. Rekvirer den nye særskilte brochure på Mobilia, der allerede har fundet vej til flere spændende projekter. Johannes Foersom & Peter Hiort-Lorenzen have designed a consistent office storagesystem for Erik Boisen. Last year Mobilia was introduced as an acoustic wall with shelves, totally in veneer. The new version has been changed to a more box-like system at a far more competitive price. Light birch shelving differentiates from the painted box and gives the series a visual lightness. The wide cupboards and shelves give the impression of a clean and calm look. The freestanding cupboards are suitable as room-dividers. Available in various heights and for different purposes e.g. flap, extension files and drawers, all carried on a frame of powderlacquered steel. Please ask for the special brochure on Mobilia, which has now been used for more projects.

7 Erik Boisen etablerer nyt showroom Erik Boisen establishes a new showroom Sydbank i 15 år Gennem mere end 15 år har Sydbank møbleret næsten alle sine afdelinger med Erik Boisen-produkter. I årenes løb har Erik Boisen primært leveret CITY BU- REAU til bankens mange afdelinger. Det er interessant at banken på det seneste også er faldet for det nye MOBILIA-system tegnet af Johannes Foersom og Peter Hiort-Lorenzen, som tilfældet har været i den nyeste Gråsten-afdeling. Desuden er hovedsædet i Åbenrå nu også indrettet med Erik Boisens møbler. Sydbank for 15 years For more than 15 years Sydbank has furnished nearly all branches with Erik Boisen-products. Throughout the years Erik Boisen has primarily delivered CITY BUREAU for the many branches of the bank. It is an interesting fact that lately the bank has taken interested in the new MOBILIA-system designed by Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen, which has been the case regarding the new office in Gråsten. Furthermore the headquarters in Åbenrå is now also going to be furnished with furniture from Erik Boisen. I forbindelse med at Erik Boisen A/S nu har gennemført en outsourcing af hovedparten af egenproduktionen, er der blevet plads til et større showroom på ca. 350 kvm.»det er planen, at have en permanent onecollection udstilling, således at vore forhandlere, arkitekter og andre kan få et samlet overblik og gennemgang«, udtaler Erik Boisen. Showroomet skal stå færdigt i år og er placeret i Brørup tæt ved Motorvejen mellem Kolding og Esbjerg.»Endvidere bliver der udarbejdet en ny samlet onecollection bog med hele kollektionen, der er klar til efteråret«, fortsætter Erik Boisen In connection with the outsourcing of most of Erik Boisen s own production there is now room for a large showroom of 350 square meters.»the plan is to have a permanent onecollection exhibition, so dealers, architects and others can form a general view of the collection and we can take them through it«erik Boisen explains. The showroom will be finished this year and will be placed in Brørup, close to the highway between Kolding and Esbjerg.»Furthermore this Fall we are going to work out a new onecollection book containing the complete collection«erik Boisen continues.

8 45-stolen The 45-chair Finn Juhl Hansen & Sørensen ApS overtog i 2001 alle rettigheder vedrørende produktion og salg af Finn Juhls modeller, der i dag oprethavemæssigt ejes af Wilhelm Hansen fonden.»det hele startede i 1999, da vi blev kontaktet af Finn Juhls enke, Hanne Wilhelm Hansen. Hun bad os, om vi ville udvikle en sofa model 57 til en udstilling på Munkeruphus om Finn Juhl møbler. Sofaen, der kun var fremstillet i få eksemplarer tilbage i 1957, var ikke at skaffe nogen steder. Vi blev meget beærede og sagde hurtigt ja«fortæller Henrik Sørensen. Sofaen blev lavet i samarbejde med Brdr. Petersen Polstermøbelfabrik i Viby efter tegninger, der var hentet på Kunstindustrimuseet, hvor alle Finn Juhls tegninger er opbevaret. Siden er det gået slag i slag og i dag produceres i alt otte modeller samt fire modeller på licens i Japan.»Samarbejdet med Hanne Wilhelm Hansen var på alle måder fantastisk inspirerende og vi kan kun begræde hendes pludselige død sidste år«siger Henrik Sørensen. Som noget af det sidste i sit særdeles aktive liv som både musik- og teaterforlægger indstiftede Hanne Wilhelm Hansen»Finn Juhl Prisen«i Denne internationale pris skal hvert år uddeles til et særligt talent inden for primært møbeldesign. Sidste år gik prisen på kroner til den amerikanske arkitekt Maya Lin. I år foregår prisuddelingen den 12. maj i Bella Centret i hal H med efterfølgende reception på onecollections stand. Finn Juhl In 2001 Hansen & Sørensen got all rights concerning production and sale of Finn Juhl models. Today these original rights are owned by the Wilhelm Hansen Foundation.»It all started in 1999 when we were contacted by Finn Juhl s widow Hanne Wilhelm Hansen. She asked us, if we would develope a sofa model 57 for an exhibition at Munkeruphus concerning Finn Juhl furniture. Only a small number of sofas had been produced back in 1957, and none was available anywhere. We were very honoured and accepted quickly«tells Henrik Sørensen. The sofa were produced in co-operation with Brdr. Petersen Polstermøbelfabrik in Viby in accordance with sketches from The Danish Museum of Decorative Art, where all the sketches from Finn Juhl s hand are stored. Since then things have happened fast and today we totally produce 8 models and 4 models on a licencebasis in Japan.»The co-operation with Hanne Wilhelm Hansen was in every way tremendously inspiring and we can only regret her suddenly passing away last year«says Henrik Sørensen. One of the last issues in her very active life as a music- and theatherpublisher Hanne Wilhelm Hansen instituted»the Finn Juhl Prize«in Every year a special talent, primarily within furniture design, will be given this international Prize. The American architect Maya Lin was last year given the prize of Dkk. This year the prize-giving will take place in Bella Center hall H on the 12 th May. Afterwards there will be a reception at onecollection s stand. I år under møbelmessen i Bella Center relanceres Finn Juhls legendariske 45-stol af Hansen & Sørensen. Stolen er en af Finn Juhls hovedværker.»selv om vi har modtaget utallige opfordringer til at sætte 45 stolen i produktion, var det egentlig vor partner i Japan, Danish Interiors, der er skyld i at stolen nu genopstår. Direktør Preben Pontoppidan ville have stolen til Japan og afgav en ordre på 10 stk. ud i det blå værsgo! Og det var jo et sprog, vi kunne forstå. Men noget tyder på en stor interesse, da hele den første serie på forhånd er afsat og i det hele taget er der en støt stigende interesse for hans fantastiske møbler verden over«fortæller Henrik Sørensen. I et nummer af tidsskriftet Mobilia fra 1964 beskrev Finn Juhl selv netop 45-stolen, så skal vi ikke bare høre, hvad han selv sagde: 45-stolen blev tegnet til Københavns Snedkerlaugs møbelkonkurrence 1945 og blev fremstillet til brug ved udstillingen samme år. Som ved de fleste andre konkurrencer begyndte jeg for sent og blev tvunget til i løbet af fire dage at tegne alle møbeltyper til snedkermester Niels Vodders afdeling. Det tog cirka fire timer at tegne stolen uden forudgående skitsering. Sådan syntes det ihvertfald, men i virkeligheden havde jeg længe haft den i tankerne. Det har altid interesseret mig at analysere et møbels forskellige dele, muligvis som følge af min tidlige interesse for Corbusiers kubistiske arkitektur, hvor farver og materialer accentuerer de forskellige planer og bærende led. Herved fremkom den synlige todeling af den bårne polstrede del og det synlige stel. I netop denne stol er todelingen ikke konsekvent, idet blindtræstellet i høj grad indgår i konstruktionen men viljen fandtes der. I senere stole har jeg langt mere konsekvent fulgt denne tankegang, hvorved det»svævende sæde«og det ophængte rygstød er fremkommet. Adskillelsen fandt også sit udtryk i, at den faste polstring fik een farve betræk, mens den løse sædepude fik en anden farve. Ryg og sæde var dengang ofte Karen Warmings grå javavævede, mens puden var i en stærk blågrøn kulør. Nu er jeg gladere for stolen i et diskret ret mørkt betræk, enten brunt i en anden nuance end nøddetræet eller gråt, som f.eks. Doris Nielsens smukke ensfarvede grå med en ret kraftig struktur, som er en kontrask til det glatte omend matte træ. Altså bøtten er vendt, idet jeg nu bestræber mig på, at stolen skal virke så homogen som muligt. Træværkets samlinger ved armlænet var utraditionelle og vakte en del diskussion, men jeg har iagttaget, at selv konservative mestre nu vover sig ud i disse samlinger som selvfølgelige. Karakteristisk for stellets synlige træ er ellers de stramt buede armlæn, der fortsætter op som rygstøtter, og de to koniske sprodser under sædet, som giver forbenene tilstrækkelig stivhed mod sidetryk. Alle led er modellerede i tykkelse, men kun armlænene har virkelige kurver. Jeg mener, at det er væsentligt for denne stols udseende, at den lineære effekt er så stærkt begrænset. Hvor jeg i andre typer har været mere»energisk«i formsproget, er resultatet som oftest blevet mindre klart. Armlænets tværsnit var dengang usædvanligt, idet man gjorde det konkavt i næsten alle andre stole. Den konvekse form blev valgt, fordi armen derved kunne hvile på tværs af stolens længderetning. Konkaviteten under armen var dels en æstetisk nødvendighed for at opnå så stor synsmæssig lethed som muligt, dels en berøringsmæssig behagelighed. Hvorved jeg til læsernes tilfredshed kan slutte med at sige, at vi herved er nået frem til stolens væsentligste led og begrundelse de mennesker, der efter tur skal sidde i den, og uden hvem den er en ligegyldig død ting, men sammen med hvem den kan være en behagelig brugsting. Finn Juhl This year during the furniture fair in Bella Center Hansen & Sørensen will re-introduce the legendary 45-chair by Finn Juhl. The chair is one of Finn Juhl s main works. Even though many have requested a production of the 45-chair, it is because of our co-operation partner Danish Interiors in Japan, that the chair now is being re-introduced. Manager Preben Pontoppidan wanted to have the chair in Japan and ordered 10 pieces just like that! This was the kind of language we could understand. However, there has been quite an interested, as the first series have been sold beforehand. In general there is world-wide an increasing interest for Finn Juhl s fantastic furniture tells Henrik Sørensen. In the magazine»mobilia«from 1964 Finn Juhl himself described the 45-chair, and this is what the man himself had to say: The 45 chair was designed for the 1945 furniture competition of»københavns Snedkerlaug«( The Copenhagen Guild of Cabinet-Makers) and was made for the exhibition the same year. For this competition, as for most of the others too, I started too late, and in the course of 4 days I had to design all the furniture types for the cabinet maker Niels Vodder s stand. I spent about 4 hours without any preceding outline drawing this chair. At any rate it looked that way, but in reality I had been thinking of it for a long time. It has always interested me to analyse the various parts of furniture, I suppose on account of my early enthusiasm for Corbusier s cubist architecture, where colours and materials are accentuating the various disjunction between the supported, upholstered part and the visible frame. Just in this chair the disjunction is not consistent, as the supporting frame certainly is a part of the construction but the intention was present. In later chairs I have far more consistently followed this reasoning, the result of which is»the hanging seat«and the suspended back. I also emphasized the disjunction by letting the fixed stuffing have a cover in one colour, whereas the loose cushion got another colour. At that time back and seat very often were grey (Karen Warming s Javaweaved fabric), whereas the cushion was blue-green. Now I like the chair better with a discreet, rather dark cover, either brown or another shade than the walnut, or grey as e.g. Doris Nielsen s fine, plain, grey cover with a rather strong structure which is a contrast to the smooth but mat wood. In other words, I changed my mind and now want the chair to be as homogeneous as possible. The joinery joints of the arms were untraditional and caused some discussion, but I have noticed that even conservative cabinet-makers now consider these joinery joints natural. Characteristic of the visible wood are the strictly curved arms which continue upwards as the upper parts of the legs, and the 2 conic stretchers under the seat, which are giving the front legs sufficient stiffness against pressure from the sides. All parts are modelled in thickness, but only the arms have real curves. In my opinion it is essential for the look of this chair that the linear effect is that much limited. In other types I have sometimes been more»energetic«in the design, but the result has often been less distinct. The cross section of the arms was unusual at that time, as almost all other chairs had it concave. I chose the convex form, because by doing so I could make the arm rest crosswise. The concavity under the arm was partly an aesthetical necessity in order to obtain as light a visual impression as possible, partly an agreeable touch in the hands. To the satisfaction of the readers I can finish by saying that hereby we have come to the most essential part of and reason for the chair the persons who in turn are going to sit in it and without whom it is an unimportant, dead thing, but together with whom it might be a comfortable piece of furniture for everyday use.

11 WOHNKULTUR 66 Wohnkultur 66 i Hamburg er blevet Hansen & Sørensen s sparringspartnere, når det gælder markedsføring af arkitekt Finn Juhl og hans møbler. WOHNKULTUR 66 Wohnkultur 66 in Hamburg has become our teamplayer, when it comes to market the architect Finn Juhl and his furniture. I et nedlagt slagtehus mit i Sankt Pauli i Hamburg har ægteparret Martina og Manfred Werner til huse i deres forretning Wohnkultur 66. Der er ikke indlagt varme, men alligevel oser der af atmosfære og hjertelighed. Slidte blodrødlige betongulve med store revner, fliser og afskallede vægge står i skarp kontrast til de smukke sortmalede støbejernssøjler, der støtter tunge gamle jerndragere under loftet. Manfred og Martina lever og ånder for møbler nat og dag. De søger overalt og køber brugte ting på auktioner, på markeder og hos private, når de synes, priserne er i orden. Karrieren til møblerne er bl.a. gået over handel med fisk, eget Punkværtshus i Hamburg, der hvor The Beatles blev kendte, og nu er de endt som 100% møbelfreaks, hvor de driver Wohnkultur 66 i Sternstrasse. De sælger både nye og brugte møbler, lige fra Eames over Jean Prouvé til Grethe Jalk og Finn Juhl. Wohnkultur 66 er eneste Finn Juhl forhandler i Tyskland og til efteråret udsender vi en smuk tryksag med fantastiske fotos af vore Finn Juhls modeller fotograferet i slagtehallen hos Martina og Manfred. In a closed down butcher s house right in the heart of Sankt Pauli in Hamburg you will find the couple Martina and Manfred Werner and their shop Wohnkultur 66. There is no heating in the house, but yet there is a feeling of atmosphere and warmth. Worn blood-reddish concrete flooring with large cracks, tiles and shelled walls is a sharp contrast to the beautiful black painted casted iron columns, which support heavy old iron girders under the ceiling. Manfred and Martina live and breathe furniture night and day. They look everywhere and find second hand pieces on auctions, on markets and also from privates if they think the price is good. The way to the furniture career, has among other things, crossed dealing with fish, a punk-public house in Hamburg, where The Beatles started their career, to now being 100% furniture freaks running their business Wohnkultur 66 in Sternstrasse. They sell both second hand and new furniture, right from Eames, over Jean Prouvé to Grethe Jalk and Finn Juhl. Wohnkultur 66 is the only dealer of Finn Juhl in Germany and this Fall we are going to release a beautiful print with fantastic photos of our Finn Juhl models taken in Martina and Manfred s butcher s hall.
