Studio TK’s Freehand & Havn Earn Good Design Awards
February 11, 2020
Studio TK today announced that its new Freehand Occasional Tables offering and Havn Seating Collection both received 2019 Good Design Awards in the Furniture category. Freehand’s modular nature, variety of shape and size options, and wide range of finishes allow the table line to maximize any space. Havn provides a versatile retreat for a work culture that is becoming increasingly collaborative and mobile. Good Design is organized annually by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design in cooperation with the European Centre for Architecture, Art, Design and Urban Studies.
“We are honored that our new Freehand Occasional Tables and Havn Seating collections have been recognized by the Good Design jury as being among the best and most outstanding 2019 design products across the globe,” said Charlie Bell, President, Studio TK. “We are proud to share these awards with Freehand designers Tom Lloyd and Luke Pearson, and with Havn designers Flemming Busk and Stephan Hertzog.”
Freehand Occasional Tables
Freehand is a multi-purpose occasional table system designed for commercial interiors of any kind, including lobbies, offices, retail settings and more. Its modular nature and variety of shape and size options allow it to fit any space, serving as a side table or coffee table depending on the layout of the area it occupies. Freehand’s wide range of potential finish combinations yields a product that allows ample expression in commercial interiors.
Havn Seating Collection
Havn is a Scandinavian-inspired seating collection comprising a winged lounge chair and settee. Havn addresses the demand for increased flexibility in today’s workplace. Low-back settees and lounges provide a comfortable area for socializing, collaborative work, or casual interviews, while high-back offerings block distractions for employees as they work on tasks that require a great deal of focus. The high-back settee also serves as an excellent alternative to conference rooms for two-person meetings.
In addition to Havn and Freehand, many other Studio TK products have been recognized with Good Design awards over the years, including the Borough Modular Lounge collection, Cesto Seating and Tables collection, Dual Lounge, Qui Seating and Surfaces, and Infinito + Masalla Lounge Seating and Tables.
