Lanoba Design

Lanoba Design is the brainchild of Lars Noah Balderskilde and David Singh. Every year since 2016, Balderskilde has flown home to Denmark to hunt down midcentury Danish furniture, combing flea markets, knocking on people's doors, and scavenging the streets for discarded furniture. He then packs them into large containers and ships them to the U.S, where he and Singh refurbish and resell them to avid American customers. In a world where Americans throw out more than 12 million tons of furniture per year, it has also championed circular design by breathing new life in Danish castoffs, carving itself a niche in a oversaturated furniture market. A truly fascinating story.
