Montana - Three New Colours
This summer, Montana Furniture have introduced three new colours into their carefully coordinated palette of water-based lacquer colours. Developed in collaboration with colour specialist Margrethe Odgaard, the Danish brand famous for creating Peter J Lassen's ingenious modular storage system has added three gentle and uplifting tones: acacia, ruby and clay. Blending seamlessly with the existing palette, the three newcomers are calm and comforting as well as feeling fresh and contemporary.
"The new colours are three very poetic colours that, each in their way, bring a gentle and encouraging warmth to the room. At the same time, these are colours that you want to spend time with, you don't just finish sensing them."
– Margrethe Odgaard
As described by Odgaard, acacia (left) is bright and alive, evoking warm scents and golden sunsets; ruby (centre) balances sweet and sour, like fresh berries with white chocolate; clay (right) is cool, calm, soft and earthy.
The Dream nightstand shines in acacia lacquer with brass legs, placed against a headboard painted in clay.
The Preppy unit in ruby adds a fresh zing to the Workshop desk, shown here in clay and imagined as a dressing table.
The company has also taken this opportunity to enhance the Montana Selection - pre-configured units available on 'quick-ship' lead times in selected colours - with new Ripple units. Featuring hinged doors in delicately rippled glass, these units offer an atmospheric glimpse of the contents through a stratified pattern.

Two Carry chests of drawers shown in acacia and cumin and two wall-mounted Ripple I units lacquered in flint and masala.
The quick-ship selection of colours has also been updated:
Top row, left to right: nordic grey, white 101, pine and truffle. Bottom row, left to right: fennel, flint, cumin and oat. Montana Selection items in these colours can usually be delivered in approxmately three to four weeks.
