Inform at the Nordic Heritage Museum with Docomomo WEWA

Inform Interiors was pleased to present remarks about Poul Kjaerholm at Docomomo WEWA's event at the Nordic Heritage Museum's Danish Modern: Design for Living exhibit.

A refreshingly interested and engaged audience had all sorts of questions and comments and most made a point of trying out the 3 Poul Kjaerholm chairs we brought in for the event, the PK25, PK22 and PK9 (left to right in the top image). Furniture is meant to be sat in after all! 

One attendee, retired architect Audrey Legh Van Horne found her way to our showroom the next day just for a promised private tour with Hillary. It was delight going through the many pieces that we have at Inform from the same era as Poul Kjaerholm's work. We toured works from Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Alvar Aalto, Gino Sarfatti, and Charles and Ray Eames. Inform is available as a resource for the design community. Please visit us often to see what's new and revisit the classics we try to have on hand at all times.

Space Saving Furniture

Here in Seattle most of us are pressed for space. However, this is not news to city dwellers. Quinn has a few solutions to help you get the most out of our square footage without compromising your design style.

Bigger is not always better; just look at these beauties. No matter the reason - downsizing after the birds have flown the nest, moving to a smaller house, or buying items for your vacation home, sometimes big (and beautiful) things come in smaller packages. From petite yet incredibly comfortable chairs like the Poltrona Frau Archibald and the Bensen Lotus to multiple use items such as the Herman Miller Cognita bench/filing cabinet/storage piece, to the ingenious expanding Carl Hansen SH650 coffee table, you can be sure to find countless space-saving and superbly designed pieces at Inform Interiors.
