From architecture to small wooden objects (for which he is very famous), Hans Bølling is considered one of the fathers of Danish design.

Born in 1931, craftsman and architect as well as designer, he worked on the small and large scale, passing from furnishings to institutional buildings, bringing in every works a great charge of positivity, grace, irony.

His extensive portfolio was missing a collection of lounge chairs, now in production with Brdr Krüger thanks to the collaboration with AHEC which helped the company to select the American hardwood necessary for the realization of the collection.

The new collection includes, in addition to the lounge chair, a stool and a coffee table coffee, both inspired by his classic Tray Table of 1963 by Hans Bølling, and is made with three species American hardwood (red oak, cherry and maple) scarcely used and specially selected for their combination of sustainability, durability and structured beauty: red oak, cherry and maple.

Using wood from afar may seem like an unsustainable choice but, in reality, the opposite is true. As David Venables of AHEC explains, expand their selections of wood qualities and inspire the use of alternative wood species, not subject to excessive consumption, it is a responsible choice that must be supported.

And this is precisely the message that emerges from Bølling's lounge seating collection: "it's nice to work with a master like him", says Jonas Krüger, creative director of Brdr Krüger , “And leverage his unique gaze on structure and proportions.

We like how he manages to infuse subtle layers of details and honest solutions into a project that still remains rigorous: these are qualities that make his he design engaging and easy to use. Bølling is a master of emotional simplicity and this makes his design timeless. Together with AHEC, we are convinced that this project will push other designers to use wooden materials alternative".
