In fact at only 23 years of age in 1925, he won the silver medal at the Exposition International des Art Décoratifs in Paris. He presented a chair with pure, simple lines that enhanced the natural material with which it had been created. The style that therefore would become the distinguishing feature of his design had already emerged: function enhanced by pure simplicity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; letter-spacing: .35pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eAfterwards, a trip to Germany allowed him to become better acquainted with and be closer to Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius and Ludwing Mis van der Rohe, and inevitably be under their influence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; letter-spacing: .35pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis curiosity and design skills led him to harmoniously integrate the avant-garde currents of his time, such as Bauhaus, with the classic Danish tradition in which he was born and educated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; letter-spacing: .35pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eStarting with the 1930s, he opened his own professional studio and collaborated in producing furnishings he created with manufacturers Fritz Hansen and Louis Poulsen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eHis creative ability was earmarked by an open-mindedness and desire for experimentation which urged him to excel in grasping all the conceptual and formal aspects that distinguished the international panorama of his time throughout his career, integrating them with typical aspects of Nordic design resulting in timeless objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eIn fact, his projects as a designer are and will forever remain in design history, products that will never be outdated.
