The Æ+Y Phone

Designed by Yves Béhar for Aesir of Copenhagen

With the Æsir phone, I wanted to show an alternative to the sea of smartphones and their deluge of features. In an age when the industry seems to think that phones aren’t for speaking anymore, I wanted to focus on the idea of voice, clarity and simplicity.

Arne Jacobsen Bellevue Light

But isn't that the Arne Jacobsen Bellevue Pertol Station?



&Tradition have bought the Arne Jacobsen Bellevue Light back.
The Bellevue Lamp was Jacobsens's first lighting design in 1029.

The House of The Future needed the light of the future. And for that specific purpose, Arne Jacobsen designed the Bellevue Lamp. The exhibition house became a creative playground, just like the Barcelona Pavillon by Mies Van Der Rohe and the Weissenhof Siedlung by Van Der Rohe and Le Corbusier. Here, Jacobsen could experiment and develop new ideas on light. The House of the Future was circular, broken up by sharp straight lines. Similarly, Jacobsen’s Bellevue Lamp combines rounded and straight shapes. And more than anything, the lamp is simple, functional and flexible. Even as an early work, it bears the unmistakable characteristics of Arne Jacobsen design.

Jørn Utzon (1918–2008)

Denmark's most widely recognized architect, is remembered for his modernistic Sydney Opera House (1966)

Jørn Utzon had a unique, truly global style. He looked for inspiration in local building traditions or nature, from around the world. From that point onwards, he impresses his stamp of originality on all of his projects. This applied whether it was a building in an Arab desert, a group of houses in a Danish field, or his best know landmark, an opera house on a windswept promontory in Australia

Lamps were of special importance to Jørn Utzon. They were some of his early successful products at a time when there were only a few architectural projects. His most popular design: Utzon Tivoli Lamp was designed at the end of the 40’s.

Jacob E. Bang at Holmegaard

Much of Holmegaard early glass work was derivative and inconsequential, but between the 1930s and 1980s its fortunes were transformed by the designs of Jacob E. Bang (1899-1965), Per Lütken (1916-98), and Bang's son, Michael (1944-).

The movement began in the late 1920s with the appointment as art director of Jacob E. Bang, whose designs included an amount of striking engraved work, and was continued in the clean forms of his successor, Per Lütken.

And today great designers like Cecilie Manz are putting Holmegaard back on the design map!
