"Omnibus" designed by Sven Ellekjaer sold by Raymnor in the USA
I have one component for this unit and it bears a Raymor metal tag and no other markings. I am quite sure that this is "Omnibus" designed by Sven Ellekjaer.

Lauritz has what looks like...
Lauritz has what looks like a marked set, although it doesn't have any of the units with the colorful drawer pulls. And it is marked Albert Hansen.
I don't know anything about this unit, but I don't see, a priori, why Ellekær, Albert Hansen, and Raymor are mutually exclusive. Ellekær was a designer, Albert Hansen a builder, and Raymor a retailer.

Albert hansen is the maker of the system.
I have the documentation for it which is why i puzzle at the omnibus name.
Never heard it called that.

Not sure about the colored drawer part but here's the cover of a Raymor brochure I found online stating Sven Ellekjaer as the designer. Somewhere I have the original brochure for the one I had as well (unfortunately packed for moving)
