Hibo captures the nature of hippos in a simple and lovable sculpture made from solid oak.
The expression of hippopotamus can change as the head can be tilted to either side giving Hibo a charming and wondering look on its face. On its own or together with its child/mother, Hibo will bring enjoyment to any room it enters. Hibo builds upon an old tradition among Danish architects and designers to make expressive wooden sculptures.
“It is the attraction of the design, which allows users to interact with it. Form, function, attitude and idea is mixed and everything superfluous is cut away. I am driven by the design attractiveness and throughout the design process. Time changes our perception of the things we surround ourselves with and designing for tomorrow is a daily inspiration and a glorious challenge” - Steffen Juul
Together with our design team we have developed a universe where each product has its own place and reason for existence
