The story of Design Letters
Design Letters was founded in 2009 in Denmark by Mette Thomsen, a former interior design journalist and editor with a passion for typography. Her brand is based on lettering steeped in history: the typeface designed in 1937 by the architect Arne Jacobsen for Aarhus City Hall. These iconic letters and numbers have since adorned the entire collection, from tableware to everyday items.
