Intense colours and rich palette combinations characterise furniture and textile designer Erik Ole Jørgensens extensive collection. He discovered his talent when, as a 19-year-old furniture upholstering graduate, he contracted polio and was confined to a bed in Copenhagens Frederiksberg Hospital for an entire year. It was during that time – the last winter of the war (1944-45) – that Erik Ole Jørgensen began painting with watercolours . After his recovery, he pursued his interest in colours and patterns in his professional life.
