A NEW TAKE ON A CLASSIC DESIGN

New colors on the Kubus 4 mark the launch of Audo Copenhagen – a fusion of heritage and contemporary design. More than sixty years since it was first created, the Kubus Collection remains at the forefront of covetable Danish design.

The Kubus 4 candle holder, a harmonious and slender geometric steel frame with space for four candles, is launched in three new finishes, updating the iconic design with a contemporary expression.

Perfectly Proportioned Geometric Steel Frame

More than sixty years since it was first created, the Kubus Collection remains at the forefront of covetable Danish design. Striking yet simple in its expression, Mogens Lassen designed the first of the Kubus candle holders in 1962. New pieces swiftly followed. A perfectionist by nature, he left nothing to chance. Experimenting with forms and functions and Bauhaus ideals, the Kubus Collection is based around a perfectly proportioned geometric steel frame that challenges the material and satisfies the senses. From the first design to tealight and hurricane iterations, as well as bowls, flowerpots, vases that double as storage solutions, a bottom plate to prevent drips and damage to surfaces, and a candle snuffer and a matchbox, the Kubus Collection continues to evolve in step with modern needs.

Striking yet simple in its expression, the first of the Kubus candle holders was designed by Mogens Lassen in 1962 for a small restaurant in northern Denmark.

In perfect harmony with the colours of the wider collection, Zinc, Ivory and Olive vivify the timeless design through a modern lens while underpinning the sensorial design’s perfect proportions and enduring legacy.
