The Evermore is a classic design that conveys the craftsmanship and aesthetics of Danish modernism into the contemporary dining room or kitchen. The lines of the design are characteristic of the period and characteristic of Arne Hovmand-Olsen, who let the earnest wood play the leading role.
The tables are available here with extending leaves included, allowing almost a metre extra length, perfect for throwing dinner parties for large groups or other special occasions. The tabletop slides apart with the leaves stowing neatly underneath when not in use.
Arne Hovmand-Olsen had the world in mind, both before and after the 1950s, when he became one of Denmark’s most renowned furniture designers. The son of a farmer and an aesthete by nature, he started as an apprentice cabinetmaker, before studying furniture design and pursuing his passion for visual composition and furniture design.
In 1944, Arne Hovmand-Olsen opened his own design practice, where he united the details of classic craftsmanship with innovative, modern design. He was a pioneer, not only in the field of architecture, but also in the field of exporting designer furniture to accommodate the large interest abroad.
