In a light-filled space atop the newest wing of the headquarters, Charlotte Lynggaard's office forms the company’s creative epicentre from where new ideas are sketched and sculpted. A kaleidoscope of gemstones, fresh flowers, Danish design classics, intricate collages, and a sea of aquarelle sketches, Charlotte office is a vivid colour scape where it is impossible not to be inspired. Seated at her desk, she draws up new designs that begin as one-of-a-kind creations and may find their way to the permanent collection.

“I spotted this Vipp chair during Copenhagen’s design festival. It was a bespoke piece upholstered in this wonderful pattern that felt like it had been dreamt up for me. I reached out to Vipp and ordered two more tailored chairs – one for my daughter’s office and one for the Ole Lynggaard Apartment.”

“I’m in love with this fabric. It matches the colourful vibe and energy in my office. Just as our customers seek one-of-a-kind jewellery pieces, the opportunity to specify your own choice of fabric for a chair, makes the object more personal. It becomes yours.”

From a deep dive into the blue sea, Sofia’s source of inspiration now soars to the blue skies where birds are a newfound muse. A wall in the office is composed of her sketches of avian animals and a wax sculpture of a bird perched on the desk made together with her father confirm her shift toward ontology. Soon awaiting her first child, Sofia finds herself increasingly drawn to nesting species which will inform an upcoming collection that reflects a new phase of life and design.

 

The edgy elegance that characterises Sofia’s jewellery design extends seamlessly into her workspace. With an office full of curated detailing even the chair tells a personal story. The office chair from Vipp is upholstered in a vivid fabric by Italian textile house Dedar, personally chosen by Sofia.
