Recognised Danish design in beautiful new colours
For over 60 years, the iconic Kubus candleholder has exemplified the potential of the Danish design tradition. The Kubus series dates back to the 1960s, when the first black lacquered metal candleholder was designed by Danish architect Mogens Lassen back in 1962. Lassen, who was inspired by Cubism and the Bauhaus movement, is one of the biggest Danish names in Scandinavian functionalism. However, it wasn't until the 1980s that the candlestick was put into industrial production and thus became known in wider circles. It was Mogens Lassen's grandson, Søren Lassen, who put the candlestick into production. He had no doubt about the stagen's potential in the market - and it's fair to say he was right. Since then, the collection of Kubus designs has grown to include many different variations of the iconic design, keeping the proud traditions alive and well. The Kubus series consists primarily of candle holders but also includes vases and other home accessories that all have the same graphic design with straight lines and right angles that make them highly recognisable and easy to combine. You will find the entire Kubus series righthere!
Now Audo Copenhagen reintroduces the well-known classic in new colour variants that have been carefully selected to preserve and enhance the stylish expression of the candleholder and to harmonise and blend in with the original design. The original Kubus 4 therefore comes in the colours Ivory, Olive and Zinc, while the Kubus Line, an extension of the Kubus designed by Lassen in 1983, is now available in black, white and brass.
