PLEASE WAIT to be SEATED is a Copenhagen-based design company with a mission: to create lasting and meaningful furniture, lighting, and accessories. Their style is unmistakably their own, blending playful, vibrant ingenuity with a genuine reverence for the classics and an insatiable curiosity for architecture and form. This amalgam somehow results in designs that feel both familiar and daringly original. The distinctiveness might stem from their collaborations with some of today’s most exciting artists and designers, or perhaps their commitment to quality, enduring materials, and responsible solutions. Every piece is anchored by a carefully curated colour palette, ensuring a cohesive feel across the collection.

PLEASE WAIT to be SEATED invites you to explore their latest novelties and full design collection at their permanent showroom, located in the heart of Frederiksstaden, Copenhagen’s historic centre.

You’re not like everyone else. Neither are we. You won’t find us in every home, in every store, or in every office. We’re among the few Norwegian furniture manufacturers who still design and craft our furniture at our own factory. We’ve been doing that since the 40s. And we’ll continue to do so, right here in Sykkylven, the country’s furniture capital. We make products built to last. In fact, no one should want or need to throw away an LK Hjelle product. That’s our vision. And it ensures that we always double-check that the screws are tight, that we choose the best suppliers, and that we make it easy for our customers to have their furniture repaired, so they get renewed life and can bring joy to many, many, many…

Project Materia is an evolving platform dedicated to the exploration of materiality - its histories, processes, and artistic potential. Bringing together internationally renowned artists across disciplines, the project examines how materials shape and challenge contemporary artistic expression. Rooted in a curatorial approach, artists are invited and curated by TABLEAU, fostering a dialogue between diverse practices and perspectives. In collaboration with Edition Solenne, Project Materia creates a space where material becomes both subject and medium - and where the boundaries of design, craft, and collectibility are continuously reimagined.
