Background:
Woodmark International, founded in 1986 by Danish upholsterer Arne Norgaard Christiansen, transitioned from importing to manufacturing Danish-designed furniture in Australia by 31st December 1990, becoming a pioneer in producing licensed pieces for brands like Erik Jørgensen and Fritz Hansen. Known for high-quality craftsmanship, Woodmark furnished iconic projects like the Sydney Opera House and collaborated with Australian designer Charles Wilson on the acclaimed CW1 Swivel Chair, now in the Powerhouse Museum. Jørgensen Australia, likely a licensing partner of Denmark’s Erik Jørgensen Møbelfabrik (est. 1954), worked with Woodmark to produce designs like the EJ70 "Partner" Chair locally, blending Scandinavian minimalism with Australian manufacturing expertise to deliver premium furniture for commercial and residential markets.

Design Story
Fritz Hansen is one of the most important names in Scandinavian design, known for creating furniture that combines minimalism, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance.
Founded in 1872 in Copenhagen by cabinetmaker Fritz Hansen, the company began as a small woodworking business before becoming a defining force in Danish modernism. Its reputation grew through collaborations with visionary designers who believed furniture should be both functional and beautiful.
The company’s most influential partnership came with Arne Jacobsen, whose designs helped shape the identity of Fritz Hansen in the mid 20th century. Chairs like the Egg Chair, Swan Chair, and Series 7 Chair became icons of Scandinavian design, recognized for their sculptural forms and understated sophistication.
Unlike furniture trends that come and go, Fritz Hansen pieces were designed with longevity in mind. Their aesthetic is quiet rather than extravagant, relying on proportion, materials, and craftsmanship instead of decoration.
Today, Fritz Hansen remains closely associated with refined Nordic interiors, where simplicity and warmth coexist. Its furniture can be found everywhere from luxury hotels and creative offices to carefully curated homes, continuing a legacy that has influenced modern design for more than 150 years.
