About Jon Jansen
Laidlaw had been a successful toy manufacturer with an eye on modern design. He saw the opportunity to fulfill demand in New Zealand for the clean lines of Modern style furniture. In 1951, Jon Jansen opened for business. It imported products but also highly benefited from the skills of two Dutch designers, Edzer Duije (Bob) Roukema and his assistant Jon Kohl. The store was a resounding triumph. The Symonds Street flagship store became a three story emporium. It attracted a national following, serviced by an additional three stores throughout New Zealand.
Unfortunately Jon Jansen furniture store's ultimate demise came after 12 years. Increased import controls, the departure of both designers and increased competition put an end to this classic Kiwi store. In spite of the Jon Jansen shops closing, Jon Jansen furniture was still produced up into the 1970s and sold through retailers such as Dansker Mobler.
