Carl Hansen & Søn represents more than 115 years of Danish furniture history infused with respect and passion for artisanal craftsmanship. The world's largest manufacturer of designs by Hans J. Wegner, the collection of Carl Hansen & Søn also includes works by renowned design masters such as Kaare Klint, Poul Kjærholm, Vilhelm Lauritzen, Ole Wanscher, and Børge Mogensen. Proudly crafted in Denmark.

'Framing Compositions' marks a new chapter for Carl Hansen & Søn at their flagship—a space steeped in history and craftsmanship. This exhibition invites you to explore a curated interplay of past and present, where iconic designs engage in seamless dialogue with contemporary pieces. Through thoughtfully composed settings, Framing Compositions highlights the versatility of Carl Hansen & Søn's furniture across eras, demonstrating how heritage craftsmanship and modern sensibilities complement one another. As you walk through the exhibition, experience each composition from multiple angles, and discover how form, material, and tradition unite in a dynamic yet timeless expression. Looking forward to welcoming you.
