I will always enjoy your work and thanks to you for the impressions on my life. It would never have been the same without you!

A real shame, what a legacy to leave behind.

Will go down as one of the greatest industrial designers of them all.

What a shame. Glad that I managed to talk to him a couple of years ago, he was a true gentleman.

Very sad news

Article in Jyllands-Posten .

A great loss to us, the world and most of all his family.

The numbers in the article point to his contribution to B&O and us; his representation at MOMA point to his contribution to the world of design.
