Designer chairs - Arne Jacobsen


Today, we would like to introduce the work of world famous architect and designer Arne Jacobsen.
He was from Copenhagen, Denmark, and introduced his first furniture design “The Ant Chair” in 1952. In 1955 he presented the “No. 7” chair. Both matched modern needs perfectly by being light, compact and easily stackable.
 
Two other successful chair designs, the “Egg” and “Swan”, were created for the SAS Royal Hotel, which he also designed, in 1956.


Jacobsen started his career as an architect but today he is remembered primarily for his furniture designs due to these famous chairs.
His products are certified as World Cultural Heritage.
The “No.7” chairs will be in our meeting room from next week!
