Today I visited a retired photographer that took many pictures of Verner Pantons pieces from the 60:ies and forward. His name is Bent. Bent is originally danish but now lives in Sweden. He and his wife lives deeply into the forrest, now without any design furnitures in a cottage. He used to take pictures for […]

“BRANGELINA” ALSO HAVE A FUN 7 LAMP
It seems like we are not the only one that has a FUN 7 DM lamp. According to the german magazine BUNTE, “Brangelina” has one in their living room too! Also they have quite a good view over the Pacific ocean to go with it…
MORE PICTURES OF THE FUN 7 DM
Ok, the lamp is ready! It is hard to show the lamp in pictures compared to see it live. It looks incredible when you sit under it! And yes… we will get other chairs and table.
TABLE CRASH AT HOME
Yesterday I putted up a Pantonova diningtable under our new FUN 7 lamp. Today, our twin boys, Leo and Otis managed to flip the glas plate over the edge of the table. Luckilly they were both on the same side so they survived without any damages at all. PUHH! The plate was almost 2 cm […]
WIRE CONE CHAIR FROM PLUS LINJE

All other fabrics from Astoria are now in museums. You can see that the “Astoria-version” had a bigger print and the colour […]

Next two items this week is these two WIRE CUBES made by FRITZ HANSEN in the 70:ies. You can also see a exhibition catalog on top of one cube. I will come back to that soon but you will then see very cool pictures and read about the Astoria restaurant in Trondheim, Norway that Verner […]
A PROTOTYPE ASHTRAY IN WHITE
Another cool objects showed up today… This is probably a prototype for an ashtray designed for the DER SPIEGEL PUBLISHING HOUSE. Verner made his ashtrays in red, blue, turquise and orange but not white… He usually made his prototypes in white so the colour shouldn´t distract when he created the form. The Swiss company Emaillerie […]
