The exhibition presents two products developed by Anker Bak and produced by OneCollection: the Hiro lounge chair and the Yōbi pill box. They are shown in collaboration with Dignity Design, founded by Anker Bak and strategist Jonas Sølberg, with the ambition of bringing aesthetic quality, intuition, and material understanding into life stages traditionally defined by function alone.

“Denmark has a strong design tradition, but we have mainly designed for the active phases of life. With Dignity Design, we focus on vulnerable situations – because this is not a niche, but an unavoidable part of being human,” says Anker Bak.

The exhibition The Design We Hide Away unfolds across six interconnected rooms, placing furniture, assistive devices, ceremonial objects, and personal items in dialogue. It reflects a growing societal reality: longer lives, more people living with disabilities, and increasingly complex care needs. Dignity Design aims to develop solutions centered on identity, dignity, and human needs.

For OneCollection, the collaboration extends its design philosophy, emphasizing that the need for beauty and dignity does not disappear with age or disabilities.
