Danish designs have long been synonymous with functionality and style, and PLEASE WAIT to be SEATED is no exception. Founded in 2014 by Thomas Ibsen, the brand delivers innovative, high-quality furniture pieces that blend practicality with timeless elegance. Thoughtfully crafted and meticulously considered, its designs are poised to become future icons.
Here are our three picks for your home.
The ANZA seating collection (top image) – featuring a pouffe, bench, and coffee table – is the result of a six-year collaboration between Portuguese designer Rui Pereira and Kyoto-based Ryosuke Fukusada. Drawing on the pair’s rich cultural heritage, the collection’s signature element is a generous cushion with inviting curves that beckon you to relax.
Why it’s a must-have:
Meaning “to sit at ease” in Japanese, ANZA perfectly embodies the balance of comfort and style. Individual pieces can be added to form a bigger seating configuration though they also work brilliantly as standalones.
Beautifully crafted and robust, the HARDIE stool, designed by Philippe Malouin, features a timeless rounded seat supported by three bent metal tubular columns. Its sturdy construction ensures exceptional stability and long-lasting durability, making it a reliable and stylish addition to any space.
Why it’s a must-have:
HARDIE comes in three heights – low, counter or bar – so you can easily have a matching ensemble for your dining room and eat-in kitchen. There are also different seat material options such as solid ash wood, or leather or fabric upholstery to suit different styles.
With a name like that, it’s no surprise that the BONDI chair was inspired by the famous Bondi beach; hence the curved wave-like seat backing. It’s designed by Fräg Woodall and the neat, no-frills style brings a friendly slice of Sydney’s coastal charm to your space.
Why it’s a must-have:
With its relaxed silhouette, the BONDI chair looks good anywhere, and works as a dining chair or an accent seat. It comes in natural matte lacquered ash or in a selection of vibrant painted colours to easily match your room’s aesthetic.
