In 1959, Vedel designed a small family of wooden birds, which quickly caught the attention of the public and became one of the most successful danish wooden products from the 60s.
Whether you are feeling excited, angry or melancholic, the bird family is there to experience it with you. Their bodies can be turned upside down depending on whether you want to create a female or male. Their head and beak can be positioned so that they are happy, sad, curious or anything that you can imagine. There are no borders to the expressions of the birds and whatever you are experiencing, they want to experience it with you. Happiest when in groups of other birds, they are vigilant companions to your everyday life.
Nothing compares to the feeling of having found a treasure. One in which you can discover something new every time you look at it. Architectmade's collection of design objects are made by Denmark's most recognised architects such as: Utzon, Kjaerholm, Juhl, Vedel and Karpf. The architects design their objects through sheer passion for simple sophisticated aesthetics and functionality. This is where the appeal lies. The result of this process is a clear crystallisation and conceptualisation of the product in its purest, simplest and most refined form. It is this very characteristic essence of Danish design that binds together all of Architectmade's products.
Tradition vs. Innovation? For decades the iconic products have managed to overcome this intricate diversion and have created a sophisticated blend of the two, in light of contemporary modernity rather than passing trends. This philosophy has resulted in classically designed products, which simultaneously have long-term validity and longevity in their designs.
