The Globe Concept is developed by the Norwegian designer Peter Opsvik, renowned for the classic high chair Tripp Trapp, the office chair Capisco and the revolutionary Balans concept.
Inspired by the trees he climbed in his childhood, the result is an entirely new concept for the modern, flexible workplace. The Globe Concept is a joint project with FORM2, who participated in the chair’s development and is responsible for rights management, sales and distribution.
As a Norwegian industrial designer, Peter Opsvik trained at the Bergen College of Applied Art and the Norwegian State College of Applied Art, in Oslo. Opsvik has worked as a freelance industrial designer since 1970 and he currently has his own design studio in Oslo, where he works with seven colleagues.
Opsvik has attempted to overcome our stereotypical sitting habits with his unconventional seating solutions. With rational, ergonomic products, his goal is to move the human body. For many decades, he has worked in close collaboration with the manufacturers HÅG, Stokke and Cylindra, all of whom have received numerous Norwegian and international design awards.
