Have a QDO moment!
QDO is a company of Danish origin, with Scandinavian design heritage and an open-minded global view.
We believe in products with authenticity. Designed beautifully and functionally for you. Combined with aesthetics and perhaps just a little touch of Scandinavian humor.
We believe in creating products that combines all of that… and if we are lucky, it just might assist you in creating a bit of “hygge”.
“Hygge” is a Danish word that is as difficult to translate, as it is to pronounce. It is often translated with “coziness" but it is much more than that. “Hygge” is sitting with your best friend talking for hours… or sitting with your best friend reading a magazine for hours saying nothing at all. It is cozy lounging in a deck chair at the harbourside on an autumn day… or staying inside by a warm fireplace, a cup of tea and reading a book. It is a feeling and a moment.
We hope you enjoy this 2015 catalogue. A QDO story told in beautiful pictures, taken at Papirøen, the location for Copenhagen Street Food. We found it to be the perfect setting for our products. There is no place in Copenhagen where “hygge” is more present. It is as much in their DNA as in ours.
We believe in being part of creating moments. To let our coaster light create the ambient soft light. To let our Elements glass keep the coffee or tea warm. To let our new ‘Tea on a stick’ infuser create the perfect cup of tea. At home, at the café… anywhere you are in the mood for “hygge”.
That’s what we believe and that’s where we want to be.With you… in your moments of life.
