Danish Design

Timeless beauty, comfort, craftsmanship, and sustainability are so deeply ingrained in all our furniture works that only sight and touch are required to understand and fall in love with them.

Knud Erik Hansen, CEO and owner

Every Carl Hansen & Søn design comes with a unique and meaningful story. Whether it originated in the golden age of Danish Design, or is a recent creation from a contemporary talent, that piece of furniture tells the tale of a visionary designer’s determination to unite craftmanship and innovation in one timeless
piece.

And, of course, once a piece of furniture leaves our factory and finds its way into someone’s home, an entirely new story begins.

We craft each piece with the hope that it will improve the lives of those it encounters. Made from locally and internationally sourced woods, our evocative handcrafted wooden furniture add warmth and welcome to an interior, having the unique ability to transform an empty space into
an inviting sanctuary simply by their presence.

Wood has always been a beloved building material, but its benefits to our well-being add even more value to its role within our lives. Unlike human-made materials, wood has been demonstrating to have a calming effect on people’s emotional and physiological state. Simply touching a wooden furniture has a shooting impact, evoking feelings of safety with its tactility.
