The Stockholm archipelago is not only home to Note Design Studio, a multidisciplinary studio that takes a holistic approach to product design and always sees furniture in its architectural and spatial context, but also to Anna Berg, one of the founders of holm°.

This huge archipelago and the nautical culture of Stockholm served as inspiration for the architects and designers for the design of the Pelagus series.

The name Pelagus is an allusion to the archipelago of their homeland and to the sea, the meaning of pelagus in Greek.
It is furniture that suits a lifestyle that is as diverse as that in the Stockholm archipelago, urban and cosmopolitan or far away from the city and grounded in nature.

A recently rediscovered watercolor by Finn Juhl provided the inspiration for the 75th anniversary limited edition of the Chieftain Chair.

The rediscovered watercolor shows Finn Juhl’s intention that the wooden frame of the Chieftain Chair should be made of the exotic Brazilian wood Imbuya.
However, as this wood can no longer be imported to Denmark, the House of Finn Juhl decided to produce a limited edition of the chair in smoked oak.
This choice not only corresponds to the original aesthetic that Finn Juhl had in mind, but also reflects the color expression of the chair.

Maintaining authenticity is of the utmost importance when Finn Juhl chooses to produce a limited edition of an iconic chair.
The chairs are made by skilled craftsmen in Denmark and undergo a traditional treatment process using FSC-certified oak wood.
This process, which uses no dyes, causes a natural color change by reacting with the wood’s tannic acid, resulting in a deep, rich hue.
The chair is then treated with several applications of oil, culminating in a smooth, matt finish.
