Audo Copenhagen's (Formerly known as Menu) philosophy is simple.
We want to make the world better, less complicated, a little bit nicer to wake up to. Collaborating with super-talented designers, we make objects to be treasured now and forever. We work with some of the most exciting and driven creative individuals from the worlds of architecture and design to produce high quality design with a crisp Scandinavian look.
At Menu we are obsessed with clever solutions for modern living. We want to make beautiful objects for everyday use, whether that's an indispensable item of kitchen equipment, a clever floating shelf, or a beautiful vase that adds the finishing touch to your living space. Wherever we can, we work locally with craftspeople around the world, preserving skills while creating the best modern design.
AUDO COPENHAGEN (formerly known as Menu) The Eclipse Desk - Named after its concave and convex form that resembles the illuminated passage of celestial bodies in the sky, The Eclipse Desk has a distinctive silhouette that adds a sense of drama to the organically shaped design. Crafted in solid dark-oiled oak, the sweeping tabletop is fitted with a lid that lifts to reveal a hidden storage bucket in the metal column leg, ensuring the surface of the desk remains clutter free. Designed to stand alone as a centerpiece in the middle of a room or for placement up against a wall as a more conventional piece of furniture, its intriguing form draws the eye and invites to touch.

Designed in 1950 by Ib Kofod-Larsen, The Seal showcases the Danish designer’s attention to detail, comfort and organic forms to full effect. One of his best-known designs, the casually elegant chair invites relaxation thanks to its angled frame and cushioning seat and backrest.
Flemming Lassen designed the overstuffed easy chair, The Tired Man, for The Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Competition in 1935. It is characterized by organic, bearlike shapes and then as now it created a sensation with its curved form and voluminous armrests. Sitting in the chair should, in Flemming Lassen's own words, be "as warm and safe as a polar bear cub in the arms of its mother in the middle of the ice caps".
