Fritz Hansen Author

Fritz Hansen, founded in 1872 by the man of the same name and run by his family until 1979, is a major reason why Scandinavian furniture design is held in such high esteem. In the first half of the 20th century, new production processes were implemented by the Danish furniture manufacturer, including Fritz Hansen’s production of the first steam-bent wooden chair in 1915, and creative partnerships were formed with celebrated architects and designers. Today, Fritz Hansen remains true to its impressive heritage while looking to the future, with stores and showrooms across the globe and exclusive, timeless furniture developed in concert with the world’s top designers to perfectly suit its customers’ needs and beautify both public and private spaces.
