Accessoires - Spectrum Collectie

Timeless Design Back in Production with a New Twist

In 2021 Spectrum was founded 75 years ago as the daughter of weaving mill De Ploeg. To mark the occasion, Spectrum will reissue a number of special items from its history, including the ‘Utrecht’ wall shelf that Constant designed for Spectrum in 1956 and the IJhorst stool from 1954. Studio Rens will give the collection a contemporary colour scheme. The accessoires collection will be presented in the winter of 2022/2023.

Involved partners

Spectrum & Constant


Shortly after Martin Visser was appointed head of design at Spectrum, he asked Constant to create new designs for the furniture collection. Visser has been working with Constant during his time at De Bijenkorf where he applies both art and color schemes from constant in his exhibitions in the furniture department.
The IJhorst table series designed by Constant in 1953 turned out to be a success and was included in the collection again in 2015. Constant also designs a number of wall shelves, including the Utrecht model that we will add to the collection again this year.

Design Classics with a New Twist

Spectrum Design commisioned Studio Rens to create a new colour scheme for their accessoires line of classical design objects.
