Globe Concept support
Good design should do more than look good. It should have a reason to exist.
At Globe Concept, form follows an unconventional way of thinking. Every curve, angle and detail is considered in relation to how the chair is used, creating furniture that challenges expectations without compromising its purpose.
Designed by Peter Opsvik, the collection moves beyond traditional seating solutions. Unnecessary restrictions give way to greater freedom, allowing each chair to offer more than its appearance might suggest.
The result is distinctive Scandinavian design where function is not an addition to the form. It is the reason behind it.
The idea behind Globe Concept grew from Peter Opsvik’s lifelong curiosity about the relationship between people, furniture and their surroundings.
One source of inspiration came from his childhood, climbing trees and experiencing the freedom of a body in motion. This early fascination with movement would later shape his belief that the human body is not made to remain still – and that furniture should reflect that.
Together with Swedish furniture manufacturer FORM2, these ideas developed into Globe Concept – a collection that brings an entirely different perspective to contemporary furniture.
What began with an unconventional idea became a design concept with its own unmistakable identity.
Scandinavian design has long been associated with clean lines, simplicity and understated expression. Globe Concept shares its roots in this tradition, but has never been interested in following conventions simply for the sake of it.
The collection combines sculptural forms with carefully considered functionality. From the distinctive silhouette of Globe Two to the integrated workspace of Globe Tree and the expressive presence of Garden, each design brings its own character and purpose.
These are not chairs designed to disappear into a room. They are made to be noticed, explored and experienced.
Furniture that can define a space as much as it serves the people using it.
Globe Concept brings together the design vision of Norwegian designer Peter Opsvik and the furniture expertise of Swedish manufacturer FORM2.
Peter Opsvik is internationally recognised for his unconventional approach to seating, with designs including Tripp Trapp, Capisco and Garden. Throughout his career, he challenged established ideas about furniture and explored new possibilities for the relationship between people and the objects they use.
Globe Concept, owned by FORM2, brings Peter Opsvik’s distinctive designs to an international audience.
Together, design vision and furniture expertise provide the foundation for a collection that stands apart from conventional seating.
