d line

d line is a leading Danish design brand that conceives and handcrafts sustainable architectural hardware, sanitary ware, and barrier-free living solutions.

From the beginning, d line has believed the best ideas respond to a need. This began in the 60s when Danish designer Knud Holscher, working under Arne Jacobsen at St Catherine’s College, Oxford, found himself in need of a high-quality, coordinated line of stainless-steel architectural products. This prompted him to design two door handles—the Ø14mm U and L. Since then, d line has gone on to create new categories and new design collaborations, producing sustainable products.

The architects who choose d line products do so because they are a simple, reliable, innovative, total solution to Holscher’s original St Catherine’s College problem. A perfect toolkit of pieces for spaces that are effortlessly balanced in their practical details. They bring unity to the space they inhabit—they are often the finishing touch, but never an afterthought.

A resilient approach

Sustainability is about more than material design, something d line recognizes. Always evolving is essential, and we recently introduced product technology that helps reduce waste.

"This year we launched a new line of sustainable sensor faucets. They are styled after our already beloved Qtoo collection but have been given new functionality and an enhanced hygiene factor via motion-activated technology. All steel components of our sensor faucets are 100% recyclable and come with a 20-year warranty. Sensor faucets promote water conservation by giving the building owner greater control over water consumption."

NBS allows us to showcase our products and keep our history alive. During the pandemic, we launched a new product line with Qtoo, which provided us with the perfect platform for architects to build specifications.
