The Hven was designed by Anton Bjorsing, who brought together honest untreated wood with a timeless seat design that features playfully curved armrests and a robust, quality construction. Use the stool at a breakfast bar or around a kitchen island, resting your foot on a stainless steel footrest.
Anton Björsing is a trained joiner, with the inherent will and properties of wood as his key professional focus. The more complex challenges of the design profession also appealed to the young Swede, however, and after additional training at the design school in Stockholm, his craft-based understanding of the material and the more problem-solving aspects of the design profession came together in a fruitful combination. Two aspects of the design profession, which form the strength of Anton Björsing’s ambition and work today, as he either immerses himself in the potential of the material or in concept development – from draft to product to consumer – typically cutting to the bone in an effort to arrive at a simple, expressive product.
