Posted in: danish, designer, furniture, Gallery, panton, stacking chair, vernerVerner Panton was one of the most influential Danish designers of the 20th century. His eccentric style was both innovative and playful, resulting in new uses for familiar materials. His most popular work definitely has a 60’s vibe but his work still holds up as there’s been a resurgence of interest in his work. He used lighting, texture, and a range of materials in a unique and inventive way to create environments and experiences way beyond….Total groovy space capsule psychedelia.
