"The Chair" by Hans Wegner for Johannes Hansen c. 1964
Originally designed in 1949, Wegner's "Round Chair:", went on to earn the internationally recognized nickname of “The Chair,” an honor shared by no other design before or since. Referred to as “the most beautiful chair in the world” on the cover of the American magazine Interiors in 1950, The Chair—which features a back and armrests made of one continuous wooden semicircle—quickly became a symbol of Danish Modern design, a style characterized by the simplicity of elegant, even graphic lines, function-driven forms, and expert joinery, elevated by centuries of experience in woodworking.
