History

Established in 1970.

In 1970 things changed for the better in Phoenix Arizona. A developing city enjoying rapid growth now had its first furniture showroom dedicate solely to Danish Modern. The first ever Copenhagen Imports opened in April of that year and brought to the desert Southwest a new direction of design that would come to influence the Valley of the Sun in a very positive way.

Owners Tony Christensen and Erik Hansen made the decision to move from California to Phoenix not based on market studies or demographics and such, but rather on gut instinct fueled by a passion for good design and the courage to bend the rules of what most would consider a successful furniture retail operation.

At the time, local Phoenix area furniture store owners scoffed at the two Danes saying «That stuff will never sell. Six months and they’re out!» Quite the contrary, the «stuff» did sell. It sold so well, in fact, the Partners would soon open stores in Tempe and Tucson and finally in Scottsdale.
