On Poul Kjærholm

Some designs endure. Fewer still seem to grow more relevant with time. In this episode, Ben Catford speaks with Thomas Kjærholm — Poul's son, who grew up surrounded by his father's work in Villa Kjærholm — and Christian Andresen, Fritz Hansen's Director of Craft and Heritage, about what it means to live with, produce, and protect a mid-century design legacy that remains as vital as ever.

Together they shape a portrait of the man behind the work, the obsessive precision that made the pieces what they are, and why generations of people who were never there in the 1950s keep falling in love with them.
