Why the red flag? 
Being a proud Dane, Hans has had the “danebrog”, or Danish ensign, flown on sailing vessels as a logo ever since he started out on his own in 1992. The danebrog is the only fishtailed ensign in the world, and many Danish families fly it from a flagpole in the garden on a special occasion. It’s about pride, and family, which is pretty perfect because of the immense pride Hans has in his work when creating beautiful homes for families to enjoy.
