Hans Bolling Discus Parrot
Architectmade, Denmark

Designer: Hans Bolling
Manufacturer: Architectmade
 

The Discus Parrot, designed by Architectmade in wood, is a collectible Danish figurine with colorful plumage. This Architectmade Pinewood Parrot, designed by Hans Bolling in 1961, is available in three complementing sizes and colors. The birds are shaped as a discus. Their painted parts represent the colorful plumage of the bird, whereas the chest of the bird remains unpainted; revealing the natural qualities of the wood. The beautiful veins of the wood contrast the painted parts of the birds. Parrots come in a family consisting of four members that can be placed in line in the window or on a shelf.

Bolling's work is known for its play, humor and wit. A passionate spirit whose practice and products are inspired by creative diversity, Bølling’s interest in architecture drew him back to school for a secondary degree after training as an advertising designer, growing his practice beyond objects to include villas, living complexes and town halls. Early in his career he began to craft small figures from botanicals as gifts for family and friends. The precision and personality in his objects paved the way for success as he quickly began to sell the wooden figures to stores.

We should remember the human dimension in the design. - Hans Bolling.
