The designs were used to furnish his Kähler Design restaurants in Aarhus, Denmark. Many guests showed an interest in the classic design chairs that were no longer in production.
When Frantz discovered that others saw the beauty and quality of the designs, he could not bear the idea that iconic chairs by Hans Olsen and Knud Færch would only live their lives on international auctions. And then an idea began to take shape within Frantz Longhi, who appealed to the designers' descendants. In close dialogue with the families behind the classic designs, Warm Nordic now carries out the design heritage and bring the designs into the present.
“Warm Nordic celebrates the great Scandinavian furniture architects and designers who currently appear at international auctions. We lift the classic design into the present in the company of new curated designs and refine the quality, the warm atmosphere of colors and shapes, which express the Nordic design heritage” – Frantz Longhi.
