It’s not easy to keep to it
In the only published interview with Niels, with Anthea Bain, Niels explained the philosophy with which Vitsœ started: “to produce designs with longevity, adaptability and variability.” “It’s not easy to keep to it”, he laughed. That was in 1987. Since 1995, the company’s worldwide headquarters and production have been based in the United Kingdom. “It is a nice feeling living and doing something which will live on when I die” – Niels Vitsœ (1913-1995).

Dieter Rams | About us | Vitsœ
In a rare interview, our designer Dieter Rams spoke to Kinfolk about his principles. “I have always tended to steer well clear of this discussion about beauty and argued instead for a design that is as reduced, clear and user-oriented as possible and simply more bearable for a longer period of time.”

Vitsœ (pronounced ‘vit-sue’)
The name of the company’s founder, Niels Vitsœ (1913-1995). While selling Danish furniture in post-war Germany, this man of immense charm, grace, determination and dry wit was introduced to a youthful Dieter Rams by fellow designer Otto Zapf. In 1987 Niels Vitsœ reflected, “Dieter Rams designed the collection, I give him freedom to develop ideas. Talking to other designers I realise that he is the one person with whom I can talk.” #vitsoearchive #vitsoe #vitsœ #dieterrams
