Republic of Fritz Hansen | Special Editions

Republic of Fritz Hansen announced the release of special editions for two of their icons designed by Arne Jacobsen.

A new limited edition of the Egg chair - the "Fritz Hansen Choice 2014" - will be available in stores the 1st of December 2014 - only 999 Egg chairs have been produced. Inspired to Arne Jacobsen's use of classic bluish colour tones, the chair is dressed with a beautiful indigo blue fabric from the Canvas series by Kvadrat.

There's more..., two special editions of the Jacobsen's stackable Series 7 chair will be available in 2015 - to celebrate the 60 years anniversary of the design.

Inspired by the original colour palette designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1968, two jubilee models in special colours have been created: a masculine edition with a dark blue lacquer shell and powder-coated burnished legs and a feminine edition dressed in pale pink lacquer with 24-ct gold-plated legs. 

To mark the 60th anniversary of this iconic chair, each chair has a golden plate mounted on the underside of the shell. 

"More than any other designer, Arne Jacobsen pioneered the concept of Nordic simplicity. And his stackable Series 7 chair earned Arne Jacobsen and Republic of Fritz Hansen a prominent place in design history."

ARTS & SCIENCE | AW 14 Collection

ARTS and SCIENCE encompasses a brand and seven shops, all based in Tokyo.
Here, stylist Sonya Park - founder and creative director - hosts her own originally-produced collection and a careful selections from the craftspeople and designers she reveres.
The original A&S clothing collection is rooted in exceptional examples derived from vintage work wear (usually designed for men) as well as ethnic clothing and textile traditions. These, Sonya believes, are the basis of all good fashion ideas. Comfort is crucial as are materials that age well (I like this concept), such as vintage denim, when clothes are treated as tools to be really worn and used. In pursuit of such qualities, Sonya has cultivated close collaborations with highly specialized, Japanese artisans working in the native traditions of textile manufacture and tailoring.
