Originality and authenticity: from 1968 onwards

Shortly after Danish architect Arne Jacobsen won a competition in 1961 for his design of Denmark’s Nationalbank he was contacted by Verner Overgaard, the owner of VOLA A/S, who introduced his proposal for a new type of wall-mounted mixer tap. Overgaard imagined a design where all the mechanical parts of the mixer were hidden, leaving only the handles and spout exposed. At the time, this was a completely new concept and Jacobsen realised that this idea combined with his functional approach to design had great potential. With that basic principle in mind, the simple VOLA design that we know today was conceived.
