Classic: Mammoth Chair armchair fabric cover by NORR11

Elegant lines, sweeping curves and an expressionist look - this classic chair should not be missing in any home where design is important. Its expansive forms inspired the designers Knut Bendik Humlevik and Rune Krøjgaard to create an association with a proud mammoth - hence the promising name Mammoth Chair.

Its design is based on the American home furniture design of the 1950s, which speaks in favour of upscale home decor. It will bring an enchanting retro charm into your home. The expansive upholstery and shapes of the seat and back create great  seating comfort.

"Functionality is a key factor for me and can never be ignored. So when I can achieve pure style and functionality in a product, I'm happy." - Knut Bendik Humlevik

Design team Krøjgaard + Humlevik

Rune Krøjgaard studied design and industrial design at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. His designs are characterised by a deep understanding of materials and their properties as well as the shapes and dimensions of a body. His Nordic roots and connection to classic Scandinavian traditions are also evident in his work. He has been working closely with the Norwegian designer Knut Bendik Humlevik since 2007. He studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and the School of Architecture in Copenhagen. Humlevik's interest in the totality and dynamics of designs and creations is great. Together, the two designers create products that are characterised by functionality and purity of style. Key words in their collaboration are simplicity, aesthetics and comfort.
