Description
With a breakthrough technique of molding wood veneer as a 3-dimensional form, Danish architect Poul Christiansen and Russian industrial and graphic designer Boris Berlin of Komplot create a remarkably comfortable bar/counter stool. Gubi’s 3D seating, in a choice of walnut, beech or oak laminated finishes, has an attractively rounded profile with all its edges pointing away. A black metal center base with a choice of plastic or felt glides completes this variation of 3D, which is included in the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Design is an unceasing continuum, believes this Danish house, now owned by a second generation. Owner and creative director Jacob Gubi Olsen inherited the helm from his parents Gubi and Lisbeth Larson, who founded the business to showcase their postmodern furniture. Under Jacob’s watch, Gubi added a global focus to its roots in Copenhagen, with a cosmopolitan array of furniture, lighting and interior objects.
Alongside 20th Century icons such as Robert Dudley Best and Greta Magnusson-Grossman, the design house has championed a new wave of design studios including GamFratesi, Space Copenhagen and OeO Studio. “I started out with two very strong designs, Bestlite—a Bauhaus collection designed in 1930—and Gubi Chair, designed in 2003. I felt they had something in common,” says Jacobs. “Iconic appearance, functional design, high quality, aesthetic design language and adaptable for many different kinds of interiors. I took these values as a guideline for any new designs added to the collection ever since.”
