manufacturer: Piiroinen, Finland
launch year: 2011
Our classic and popular Flakes chair by the Finnish manufacturer Piiroinen, has now been launched in a new 2.0 version.
It has the same simple and timeless design as the original handmade glass fiber version from 2005, but is now injection molded recyclable polypropylene. The design has been slightly up scaled to give added back support and comfort, particularly important for applications such as meeting rooms, restaurants etc.
The up scaled seat provides superb backrest support without compromising the simplicity and ease in which it can be handled. Furthermore, the added acoustic properties of polypropylene, as a material, adds value to the interior space by giving a soft and pleasant sound.

client: Nykredit
completed: 2011
The extension to Nykredit consists of a new building - the Crystal - sited northwest of the existing Nykredit premises. Freestanding on the site, it reads as a transparent, geometrical, glazed form which, resting only on a single point and a single line, floats as a visually light, crystalline structure above the plaza. In terms of both form and scale, the building is intermediate between the city and the harbour, and harmonises with neighbouring buildings. The interior of the building is constrained by the demands of functionality, flexibility and efficiency. The typical floor plan is disposed in a Z-shape around two atria, which ensures that all workstations are well lit and enjoy a view.
