Some ideas don’t belong to a single moment in time - they keep on evolving. In the late 1970s, a new way of thinking about sitting emerged. One that challenged stillness and set out to redefine what a chair could be. In 2006, Varier took on the responsibility of carrying these ideas forward. This year, we celebrate 20 years of stewardship of some of Norway’s most iconic designs, and a continued curiosity for how furniture can invite movement.

We visited three inspiring individuals who have lived with our chairs over time. In different homes and lives, they have become part of everyday routines, each connected to the design in their own way.
