Preben Fabricius (1931-1984) & Jorgen Kastholm (1931-2007) Biography

Preben Fabricius (1931-1984) completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter in Copenhagen before furthering his studies in interior design with Finn Juhl, where he met the blacksmith Jørgen Kastholm (1931-2007). In 1961, Fabricius and Kastholm joined forces to found a studio, from which numerous classics of furniture design emerged. The main goal of the two designers was to create furniture that had a clear aesthetic form and was timeless. They dedicated themselves to the optimization of shape, materials and ergonomics, thus following the aesthetic-functional tradition of Scandinavian design, also influenced by the Bauhaus school.
In the late 1960s, Fabricius and Kastholm designed one of the icons of design history, the FK. This enveloping chair has become synonymous with classic design, representing both a beacon of modernity and a shining example of minimalism. In 1969, the chair received the prestigious federal award for "good form" in Germany, thus attesting to its impact on the field of design. Even today, the FK continues to be considered one of the most iconic furniture designs made by Walter Knoll.
