Lucie Kaas was founded

in 2012 with a vision of bringing

stylish yet timeless interior objects

into the international design scene.

The starting point of this ambition was

in the Danish market with a number of

re-launches of mid-century Scandinavian

designs. Lucie Kaas’s approach is cha-

racterized by both looking to the past

for inspiration but also focusing on

developing new interpretations

of classic designs.

The lotus pattern was

originally designed in the 1960s by

the Norwegian artist Arne Clausen. In

collaboration with Arne Clausen’s family,

Lucie Kaas has relaunched a collection of

ceramic bowls where the pattern again

comes to its right.

The Norwegian design talent

Sara Skotte has revived the lotus

pattern with a series of cups, milk jugs,

sugarbowl and pitchers made in porcelain.

The items combine the timeless pattern

with modern shapes.

From 1955 to 1965

Gunnar Flørning was the man

behind many of the biggest Danish

design successes that were designed

and produced for the Danish company

Laurids Lønborg. Lucie Kaas has

given new life to some of his

wooden figures.

Lucie Kaas has reintroduced the

work of Danish designer Th. Skjøde

Knudsen. He experienced great inter-

national success in the 1950s and 60s

for his wooden pieces characterized

by a simple design and quality

in the craftsmanship.

BoxMove is the result of

a collaboration with the talented

Danish designduo Nordvink. BoxMove

is a flexible dresser consisting of a big

main box with legs made of oak, where

smaller modules can be placed in.

The modules are moveable, allowing for

a variety of looks and applications to be

created. BoxMove combines elegant

wood with modern colors in a

contrasting and functional

piece of furniture.

Christian Schollert was

a pioneering ceramist within the

1930s and 40s functionalistic approach

to ceramics. He ran his own pottery in

Nærum, Denmark, where he produced the

characteristic ribbed designs in the late

1930s. Lucie Kaas has relaunched some of

the items in a modern interpretation

where form and function maintains

the expression of Schollert’s

original designs.

The NORLYS candle holder is

named after the Nordic phenomenon

”nordlys” or “Northern lights”. Where in

nature the Northern lights spread across

the sky in different colours and beautiful

patterns, also NORLYS is flexible and

can be shaped into various forms.

Lucie Kaas collaborated with the

Danish designer Anna Karnov in the

making of the PickME stool. The name is

inspired by the opening in the center of the

seat that makes the stool easy to pick up and

move around. It can be used as an extra seat, a

bedside table, and even as a storage space.

Adorning breakfast tables

in the 60s and 70s, Lucie Kaas has

reintroduced and updated these Danish

designed egg holders, pencil holders and

candleholders named Bordfolk. Graphic

designer Marie Willumsen has extended

the universe with a series of posters

and bed linen.
