"I wanted to design furniture that grows up out of the floor – to turn the furniture into something organic and never with four legs." -Verner Panton
Verpan introduces two chairs from the original 1-2-3 series designed by Verner Panton in 1973. The series originally comprised 20 different models with variations in seat height, arm rests and feet. The public was very enthusiastic about the chairs at the time, and one critic wrote: "It (the furniture series) will be a milestone in future furniture design... We have never before seen chairs designed and built like the 20 models that make up this series."
The original commission was to design a furniture program that combined a series of different functions with the basic requirement of good sitting comfort. The chairs should also have a simple and natural design, so they could fit into any environment as a functional element. It took Verner Panton three years to develop the series, and the result was a unique chair concept where Panton worked systematically with design and function based on a defined theme.
The chair originally featured a light frame construction made from steel upon which fabric could be mounted. In the new version, Verpan has used foam rubber for increased sitting comfort and to ensure a tight and even upholstering. Verpan intends to add more models to the series over the next few years.
The current series includes a dining room chair and a lounge chair - both models are available in a standard version and also a tufted deluxe version. System 1-2-3 lounge chair comes with a brushed aluminum disc base. Please call the hive showroom with any questions: 1-866-663-4483.
As one of the most influential and remarkable designers of the era, Verner Panton (1926-1998) has created objects, spaces and art. He was a master of the fluid, futuristic style of 1960s design which introduced the Pop aesthetic to furniture and interiors. His original, space age designs have won numerous awards and been exhibited in museums and private collections around the world. His ideologies and design concepts are apparent and have had great influence on 21st century design.
