Kalager Design's Powder-Coated Wire Furniture

Indoor/outdoor pieces with a Cartesian aesthetic

By Rain Noe - June 19

in Furniture Design

These airy furniture pieces are by Danish furniture brand Kalager Design.

The simple geometry and Cartesian look reminds me a lot of Laurids Gallée's work, visually speaking, though the material choices of each couldn't be more different; Gallée works in resin, while Kalager's speciality is powder-coated steel wire. Kalager's pieces are thus suited for both indoor and outdoor use.

In my opinion, the pieces don't look as substantial or visually interesting when the volumes they enclose are too small or too large, as below:

However, there's a volumetric sweet spot for me, one where the visual density makes the pieces really click:

Kalager has picked up U.S. distribution through Teak New York, a furniture brand specializing in Scandinavian brands.
