Verner Panton

Verner Panton (1926 – 1998) from Denmark created innovative, futuristic designs in vibrant colors with a variety of materials. Though his style was very '1960s and 1970s' he regained popularity at the end of the 20th century. Many of his well-known furniture designs have always remained in production and others have been brought back at a later date. Already an experienced artist, Panton studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Art in Copenhagen, graduating in 1951. During the first two years of his career, 1950–1952, he worked at the architectural practice of Arne Jacobsen, another famous Danish architect and furniture designer. Panton started his own design and architectural office and became well known for his innovative architectural proposals, including a collapsible house (1957), the Cardboard House and the Plastic House (1960). In 1953, Panton converted a Volkswagen bus into a mobile studio and travelled across Europe. He returned to Denmark full of unconventional ideas, one of which evolved into the iconic Heart Cone Chair. Based on his vision of a one-piece, one material cantilever chair from the mid-fifties, Panton, together with Vitra developed the very first cantilever plastic chair. After a long development procedure over more than a decade, the Panton chair, became one of his most famous design and has been in serial-production since 1967.

One of the true rebels and pioneers in the world of lighting and furniture design, Verner Panton is an icon. True to his vision, his creative language shocked surroundings when he started designing and continues to leave people amazed today. Adding a touch of Panton instantly transforms a room. For many years Verpan has produced his famous lamps, carefully merging quality and originality.
