IB LAURSEN PRESENTS STRONG SS19 COLLECTION
Throughout 2019, IB Laursen will be wrapped in stunning pink, dark grey, dusty blue,
green, sand and mustard coloured nuances, which assure that the new items leave an ir-
resistible impression.
The brand maintains its focus on and dedication towards the natural elements, sustaina-
bility and recycled materials, which come to life in transparent, unique, historical and
colourful ways of expression. Among the new items in the collection are quilts, throws and
cushion covers, new furniture and charming UNIQUE pieces for a perfect cosiness.
In 2018 Ib Laursen introduced a spa and wellness series, ALTUM, which is inspired by the
tide that revitalizes everything on its path in the Wadden Sea. This circle of life, occurring
twice a day, is the entire idea behind the ALTUM series. The ALTUM products will bring
new life and nourishment to the body, mind and soul, just like the tide revives the marsh-
lands of the Wadden Sea, giving new life to everything on its way.
The ALTUM brand has become very strong and will be expanded with new exciting pro-
ducts in 2019.
