Danish Designer Jorgen Kastholm
It is amazing.
Amazing what some renowned designers did before they became well known.
Take Jorgen Kastholm.
He first trained as a blacksmith.
Later he became an architect.
At one point he worked with the well-known Danish designer Arne Jacobson who inspired him.
Eventually he set up a design practice in partnership with Preben Fabricius.
Together the two of them designed many furniture classics for Danish and German manufacturers.
Kastholm won many international design awards.
In the 70s he became a professor at a German university and he also continued with his design work.
Designers And Their Stunning Discoveries
Designers.
If they are good they always mange to be ahead of the design curve.
They pick out objects and discover items before they become part of a trend.
So with that thought in mind here are some examples of what some designers think is hot.
Plants Are More than Just For Decoration
Plants.
They are great for decorating your home or apartment.
They define a room, give it stature and add elegance that is inexpensive.
But did you know that plants are also a lot more than that?
In fact, they can do some wonderful things that are good for you.
There is another side to plants that a lot of people don't know about.
