Blå Station
Blå Station was born from a designer‘s desire to put into production furniture which he himself liked and which, to his mind, deserved a place in the market.
Blå Station is a family-run business and is located in what was once a sewing factory in Åhus, on the southeast coast of Sweden where the sea is just as restless as they are.
They are driven by a desire to produce furniture that they like, and which deserves a place in the market. Curiosity is what fuels their search, not for the already known and established, but for the unexpected, yet-to-be-discovered.
Their focus is on the interiors around them, on how they are built and work. How do we interact in the public space? Are there new demands in today’s society? Has our way of socialising changed? These are some of the many questions that inspire them to think differently.
At Blå Station, they have taken a stand and make choices based on emotions and conscience. They follow their seven sustainable development criteria and what’s more, have chosen to produce everything in Sweden. That decision was made to ensure that each link in the chain of production adheres to their criteria.
For the furniture shown in this edition of vibes, the designers at Blå Station selected Axalta Coating Systems powder coatings for the finish on their metal substrate designs. Both Oxide 2 and Quartz 2 are a combination of speckled and metallic effect powder coatings, with a fine, textured finish.
