AESTHETICS AND FUNCTIONALITY
Henrik Hvid Hansen is the innovative force behind the company Bent Hansen. Surrounded by qualified craftsmen, he has the best opportunities to try out new ideas, re-developing already known products and testing different kinds of leather and textiles.
At Bent Hansen we are designing and manufacturing furniture and home accessories based on the basic meaning of aesthetics: to sense and feel. A piece of Bent Hansen furniture should not only catch the eye. It should also feel right. Right to sit in, touch, invest in and pass on to the next generation.
We make it a point of honour that the quality of the craftsmanship and the materials shines through, and that our furniture express the simplicity and honesty that is forever in fashion.
THREE GENERATIONS AND 60 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Through it’s 60 years of experience the company Bent Hansen has always considered solid workmanship of great importance. Back in 1947 Henrik Hvid Hansen’s grandfather, upholsterer Svend Hansen, founded the company. Back then the key competence was restoring old furniture.
In 1966 Svend Hansen’s son, Bent Hansen, took over the company and expanded the business and started manufacturing interior for restaurants, hotels and ships.
In 1983 third generation, Henrik Hvid Hansen, was ready to enter the family company. As an upholsterer like his father and grandfather before him and deeply fascinated by modern design Henrik has turned Bent Hansen into a modern company with its own line of furniture design and home accessories.
