The company Skagerak has a traditionally strong bond with the Skagen, and a great part of the inspiration for new designs still stems from this city.
The simple but beautiful lines and the consistent choice of material of the Skagen Series show clear parallels and a deep attachment to the city Skagen, the Danish City of Light. The garden furniture of the Skagen Series are sturdy, stylish and throughout inspired by the furniture of ancient time, back then when the artists Drachmann, Krøyer and Ancher Skagen made these the artistic epicenter of Denmark.
Mogens Holmriis was inspired by these classical pieces for creating his Skagen Collection for manufacturer Skagerak. Beyond doubt, Skagen Bench, Skagen Table and Skagen Chair are classically drawn, whereas the function is the same as it was back then: thanks to the exceptional Skagerak-quality, the durable outdoor furniture fulfill the demand Design for Generations, whereas they are likewise suitable for indoor as well as for outdoor use.
