jacobsen series 7 chair. During the 1950s and 1960s, Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen dreated some of the most famous and sought-after chairs of the 20th century. Although best known for such adult chairs as the 'swan' and the 'egg,' Jacobsen was one of the few designers to focus specifically on creating child-scale furniture and to consider the potential benefits of applying new design philosophies in school and child-care settings. One of his most sucessful chairs, the Series 7, is again available from Fritz Hansen, the original manufacturer, with the original specifications. The striking form is made in laminated plywood on a tubular metal frame. |
