Thereafter he opened his own office and worked for a host of respected furniture manufacturers including Fritz Hansen and Magnus Olesen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis designs for shelving and case furniture utilised a geometric relationship inspired by Klint’s work, and his seating designs, such as the No.42 chair, captured the spirit of Denmark’s, post-war golden period of design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rosewood cabinet produced by Preben Schou Anderson c. 1960 displays a simple and timeless outline. The use of inset aluminium door and drawer pulls and sabots on the legs create a very individual and restrained aesthetic. The influence for the decorative use of aluminium may be traced back to Josef Hoffman and secessionist designs. The cabinet demonstrates strong use of scale and is bold in dimensions when many Danish designs of this period were smaller and lower.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20769677705327,"sku":"991181","price":3600.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/4966\/8207\/products\/Kai-Kristiansen-cabinet-front-view-3.jpg?v=1571711861","url":"https:\/\/www.twentytwentyone.mom\/products\/kai-kristiansen-cabinet","provider":"twentytwentyone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
