Part 1: It's never happened before in the lion's den

We only discovered it when we went in.

In 2024 we participated in the Lion's Den.
We actually thought we knew what awaited us.
We had seen the programs.
Prepared ourselves for the questions.
And went over our pitch over and over again.

But that changed when we went inside.
Down the stairs you've seen so many times before on TV.

That's when it dawned on us.
There were other lions sitting there.

We just managed to look at each other.
Had we gone wrong?
For a brief moment we thought,
if we had ended up in the Swedish version.

It turned out that there were new lions.
And we were the only ones who hadn't been notified about it.
It was the first time that had happened - ever, in the Lion's Den.

It may sound like a small thing.
But at that moment, the whole situation changes.
Everything you have prepared for,
suddenly becomes less secure.

There is no time to adjust.
You go in anyway.

We stood there with our product.
And with a feeling of,
that this didn't quite turn out as we had imagined.

What happened afterwards,
was also not quite as expected.

Design that creates joy and curiosity

We believe that good design is more than aesthetics – it should awaken joy, inspire conversation and ignite curiosity. Furniture should challenge our surroundings and provide space for creativity. That's why we create designs that both surprise and engage.

Quality that lasts

In a world of fast-paced trends and short lifespans, we believe in the value of long-lasting solutions. High quality is not just an ambition – it is a necessity to ensure furniture that can last you a lifetime. With carefully selected materials, we create furniture that lasts in both style and function.

Functionality adapted to modern everyday life

Furniture should do more than just fill a room – it should make a difference in your everyday life. We create designs that are practical, flexible and adapted to the modern lifestyle. With us, you get the opportunity to help shape the furniture so that it fits perfectly with both your needs and your interior design.

Flatpacking

At Kristian Juul, all our furniture is delivered flat-packed, which provides several benefits for both our customers and the environment. This solution makes it possible to transport the furniture more efficiently, as it takes up less space and thus saves space during transport, which reduces the CO2 footprint.
