Gubi
Gubi is a Danish design company dedicated to producing furniture and lighting. Gubi's headquarters and showroom are in Copenhagen in Denmark. The company was founded back in 1967 by Lisbeth and Gubi Olsen and has been family-owned ever since. In 2001, Jacob Gubi Olsen took over the management of Gubi.
The award-winning Gubi Chair paved the way for the Danish company to successfully establish its own collection of furniture and lighting. Gubi has since contributed to many projects and to the design of numerous buildings.
The manufacturer's distinctive collections are influenced by designers from around the world. Inspired by forgotten design pieces from the 1930s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s, every product tells its own remarkable story. These reissued creations connect past and future. The designers see themselves as treasure hunters who, with curiosity, courage and intuition, create the style icons of tomorrow. With this goal in mind, they travel the globe and keep discovering hidden treasures.
Responsibility is an important value for Gubi. A lot of thought goes into every new product. Innovation is always a central goal – innovation in materials, environmental aspects and design. Before an innovative concept is put into practice, however, Gubi goes through many stages to consider whether the ideas really have the potential to last. For the company, innovation only makes sense if it is useful in the long term and makes effective use of technologies and materials.
