LoCa



The Danish manufacturer LoCa can look back on a history of more than 25 years: In 1992, the engineer Thorkild Lundsgaard developed the first coat hook in his garage in Herfølge after finding no suitable product for his eldest daughter's room. Although the prototype was never used, Lundsgaard took his idea to the designers Harrit & Sørensen and together they developed the clothes hook Knax, which remains the Danish design company's top selling product. A particular challenge was the search for the right material, for all the optimum combination of wood and metal to allow for serial production. Beyond Knax the Scandinavian manufacturer LoCa has expanded its range with various clothes and coat racks in horizontal or vertical design, in addition the Knax Lite is also available, which is also suitable for use in humid areas such as the kitchen or the bathroom, as are a range of LoCa kitchen accessories such as the Straights products. The design label focuses on high quality standards, optimally selected materials, flexible solutions for different rooms as well as a clear, reduced design language in the finest traditions of Scandinavian Design.
