Blå Station is a family business from the Swedish town of Åhus. Its every armchair, table or chair is infused with history and experience, shaping the distinctive and unique look of the brand.
Blå Station is an extremely innovative company – its furniture designs must feature distinct shapes, functionalities, materials or modern production processes. The unique style of their products makes it impossible to confuse them with anything else. For example – the frame of the Superkink armchair resembles bent straw, and the wavy texture of the Dent chair looks like a sheet of paper. Oppo, Wilmer and Innovation C chairs are highly unique as well.
History
When Blå Station moved in during the spring of 1986, it placed a few furniture prototypes in one of the corners of the building. And in the beginning, before the production was up and running, it filled empty echoing rooms with art exhibits and jazz concerts. It was fun and the place became a “Station” – which the company thought was a very fitting name. Because at a station, there´s always something going on – a constant flow of change.
The second half of their name was given. Blå Station’s founder, furniture designer Börge Lindau, used the signature BLÅ on drawings – the B and the L being the initials of his first and last name and the Å representing Åhus where he had settled.
Today, Johan Lindau and Mimi Rikardsson Lindau lead the company.
