Artifort
Artifort's roots lie in the small upholstery shop set up by Jules Wagemans in Maastricht in 1890. Within a generation the store had became a successful furniture factory and by the 1920s it had expanded into a internationally renowned brand. The 1920s and 1930s represented a turning point for the family business as global economic instability forced Wagermans and his partner Van Tuinen to re-think their business strategy and image. That is how Artifort was established in 1928. In the 1930s the company gained exclusivity to the Epeda interior springing technique. This established Artifort as a leading proponent of new technologies in interior design. de The arrival of designer Kho Liang Ie was instrumental to establishing Artifort's growing influence in the 1950s and 60s. Kho Liang Le not only brought a more modern sensibility to the company and its image, but pushed for the recruitment of new young designers such as Pierre Paulin. This proved to be a crucial move, as young Paulin was to become one of the most influential designers of the 20th century. Thus, French designer Pierre Paulin became a star at Artifort, even as the latter became a leading brand in the world of contemporary furniture design. Paulin's style remains iconic and revolutionary to this day. His use of colors and materials is unique and defined Artifort's collection for decades. Another designer whose work defined Artifort in the 1960s and 70s was Geoffrey Harcourt. While Artifort has remained a leading brand in the world of furniture, since the early 2000s its has re-established itself as a innovating force in the world of design. Projects such as the Apollo chair, designed by Patrick Norguet, are exemplary of Artifort's style, light and modern.
