Designrådet er tænketanken for det danske designfelt. Vi har til formål at fremme dansk design ved at udtænke og udforske nye perspektiver på design. Vi kalder det designfritænkning. The Design Council is the think tank of the Danish design field. Our purpose is to promote Danish design by conceiving and exploring new perspectives on design. We call it design freethinking. Design creates debate — The purpose of the Danish Design Council is to explore the concept of design and to show public and private decisionmakers how design creates intelligent solutions and new possibilities in our lives. Through new initiatives and discussions of value, we wish to qualify the public debate about design, influence design policies and create solid connections between design and society. Diversity as an approach — The council represents a diversity of strong opinions and new ideas. The council consists of the most competent and innovative personalities of Danish design, such as designers, manufacturers, curators, journalists, scientists and leaders. A cross-disciplinary approach that ensures a well-founded perspective on design. The Design Council as catalyst — The council is a catalyst for the Danish design scene, which among others has led to the establishment of the Danish Design Center in 1978, and the collaboration between the Danish Design Council and the Danish Design Center has resulted in the establishment of an international advisory board consisting of the world’s leading design experts to advise Denmark about design. Furthermore, the Danish Design Council has an active international network and a long-lasting cooperation with international design organizations. Independent design quality — The Danish Design Council points out valuers, and has been approved by the Ministry of Justice to make proposals of appointing experts to participate in the handling of civil cases in Eastern and Western High Court as well as the Maritime and Commercial Court. We hand out the Danish Design Council Award – Denmark’s only lifetime achievement award for design.

En blomstrende arbejdsplads. Plantorama er i dag Danmarks største dyre- og havecenter, men vidste du, at det startede ud som et mindre familieforetagende tilbage i 1987? Siden da er Plantorama vokset med 16 centre og blevet udvidet med både dyreliv og boligliv, så vores kunder i dag finder alt til haven, boligen og kæledyrene under samme tag. Hos os er det essentielle, at kunderne bliver mødt af passionerede fagfolk, som er dygtige til at rådgive og vejlede. I Plantorama er kunderne altid i centrum, og vores fornemmeste opgave er at give dem den bedste oplevelse i vores havecentre. Vi er altid på udkig efter nye talenter til vores teams. Som Danmarks største oplevelsescenter tilbyder vi dig en bred vifte af jobstillinger. Vi ansætter både i vores fysiske centre og i administrationen, så mulighederne hos os er vidtrækkende. Vores karrieredrømme er forskellige. Derfor har vi ingen fast definerede karriereveje, men uddannelsestilbud, som er med til at skræddersy din karriere. Uanset om din drøm er at nå til tops eller at nyde fordybelse indenfor dit felt, så er der plads til dig. Plantorama udvikles gennem samarbejde, og det er her, dit talent og dine idéer er i fokus.

BRIEF ABOUT ENGELBRECHTS A/S ENGELBRECHTS A/S is a furniture manufacturer established in 1989 and working in close collaboration with designers and other specialists to develop modern and timeless furniture for the perceptive and quality-conscious user. Engelbrechts was founded by Morten Engelbrecht, and at the very beginning he sold a variety of high end products from around the world. After a successful start, Engelbrecht expanded the business concept to include furniture developed by Engelbrechts A/S. This inspired him to convert Engelbrechts A/S from a Danish furniture retailer to an international furniture manufacturer selling furniture through an exclusive dealer network. Encouraged to develop more products for the company, Morten began his next close collaboration, first with the designer Erik Magnussen and subsequently Jørgen Rasmussen and Anders Hermansen. Behind the development of all Engelbrechts’ furniture is an experienced designer. They all work with the philosophy to create aesthetic, sculptural and functional furniture – where everything superfluous is cut away. Engelbrechts’ design philosophy is very much reflected in the products we produce – nothing is superfluous. We aim to optimize all aspects of a product down to every little detail. Take Jørgen Rasmussen’s double wheel caster as an example – it took him years to reinvent the wheel, and today, you will find the wheel under almost every office chair in the world. That is functional and long lasting design. Our goal is that users daily find joy in the thoughtful details that are found on nearly all Engelbrechts’ furniture.
