Leitmotiv


Leitmotiv: a word described in the dictionary as a recurring phrase or theme in a work of art, literature or music that illustrates key features. Leitmotiv products are so called to reflect their strong and timeless design elements that appear in each and every collection. Their products surprise everybody with daring and challenging designs, which makes this collection unique to the world.


Leitmotiv used to be known as a designer brand offering both up-and-coming and established designers the opportunity to have their ideas put into production. These products varied from tea light holders to small furniture and lighting. Some of the designed products are still part of Leitmotiv’s current collection.

Today, Leitmotiv stands for a carefully composed collection of small furniture and lighting products. Each season sees Leitmotiv harnessing the stand-out talents of external designers from around the world; thus producing a collection that offers everybody the opportunity to add a design touch to his or her living room.

Twice a year Leitmotiv’s creative department travels the world looking for suppliers that can bring their ideas and designs to life. They also visit many international fairs looking for eye-catching products and ideas that tie every living room together. Special attention is paid to products that are outstanding in shape, colour, price and of course, functionality. Having assembled a host of cutting edge products, only the very best products pass through the ever-critical Leitmotiv collection meetings and in to the latest, exclusive Leitmotiv collection.

&Tradition


&Tradition is a Danish design firm which successfully combines iconic 1960's designs from Verner Panton with lighting and furnishings from fresh new young designers with a Nordic sense of aesthetics.
Craft meets art. Function meets form. Material meets potential. This is our Nordic tradition and heritage. &Tradition aims to bridge these values to contemporary design, reshaping, redefining and reinventing materials, techniques and forms. &Tradition covers the masters of yesterday, the leading designers of today and the talent who may create the classics of the future. We scout for design talent and handpick production facilities globally. But our roots are still Nordic. We respect nature that provides our raw materials, and we believe in design that is made to last.
