Torben Ørskov founded the company when he was 25 years old and had just returned from the USA. Here he had worked as a salesman for a wholesale company dealing in design products. With knowledge of how to create a business based on design products and with lots of his own ideas about what good design was, he started his own store chain Form & Farve with his own design.
The idea was to produce simple and functional design at reasonable prices.
1953 – 1986 Form & Farve in Copenhagen was the place to go if you were looking for something trendy and functional for your home. Form & Farve was an institution in Denmark for all the young and style conscious.
Torben Ørskov must be said to be one of the most significant design merchants in Denmark in the 1950s and 1960s. He started production of several designs which have become classics today. One of his great talents was his sense of collaboration with designers.
Torben Ørskov was close friends with, among others Jørgen Utzon, Kristian Vedel, Finn Juhl, Jørgen Møller and not least Hans Bølling, who all designed several products which he put into production.
