The Danish design of Carl Hansen & Son has a new flagship in Milan in via Mercato
New Milanese store, the only one in Italy, for the Danish Nordic design brand Carl Hansen & Son. In the Brera area, via Mercato 3, the mono-brand flagship has recently opened its doors, thus taking the place of a bank.
Italia Fudosan Real Estate for Carl Hansen & Son
The real estate transaction’s advisor is Italia Fudosan Real Estate, which focuses heavily on Brera, a creative area of Milan dedicated to fashion and international design – as evidenced by the Brera Design District –, full of renowned restaurants and charming venues.
The new store, 450 square meters divided over two floors, is located in a privileged and high-traffic position for the brand’s target: it is a short walk from Piazza del Carmine, Corso Garibaldi and Largo Cairoli.
The Carl Hansen & Son flagship store in Brera
Carl Hansen & Son was founded 115 years ago and has been led by Carl Hansen’s nephew Knud Erik Hansen for over 20 years. It starts as a small production and, over the years, the company grows more and more and becomes a brand with an international presence. It also opens its own single-brand stores in London, Tokyo, New York, Barcelona and Munich.
Essential, elegant and functional are the cornerstones of the Danish brand of interior and exterior furniture. The products are made with natural, sustainable and high quality materials, which guarantee their long life so as to be handed down from generation to generation. And the woods come from the forests of Denmark, where strict regulations are in force to combat deforestation.
Iconic and famous are the chairs of the brand, such as the “CH24” by Hans J. Wegner, more famous as the Wishbone Chair, and the “CH78” armchair, also called Mama Bear. There is no lack of important collaborations with international designers such as the Japanese architect Tadao Ando, the Danish Rikke Frost, the Austrians EOOS and the American Brad Ascalon.
