Founded in 1967 by Gubi and Lisbeth Olsen
Gubi is a Danish design company founded in 1967 by Gubi Olsen and his wife Lisbeth. The company originally began as a retail store for furniture and home accessories, but quickly developed into a renowned manufacturer of contemporary design.
Gubi's philosophy is based on the combination of classic and modern design. The company specializes in producing iconic furniture and lighting, often designed by renowned designers and architects. Gubi is known for its ability to combine timeless designs with innovative materials and techniques.
A key milestone in Gubi's history was the rediscovery and reissue of classic designs created in the mid-20th century. These include pieces by designers such as Greta Grossman, Jacques Adnet, and Boris Berlin. This revival helped Gubi establish itself as a major brand in Scandinavian design.
Today, Gubi offers a wide range of furniture, lighting, and accessories that are appreciated in both residential and commercial spaces. The company places great emphasis on quality, craftsmanship, and sustainability, which is reflected in the materials used and the production methods.
