It was only in the fifties that young designers like Verner Panton began to use the formal possibilities created by innovative technologies to free furniture from the constraints of tradition. Verner Panton wrote about his work: “I try to forget existing examples, even if they are well made, and find my own way of confronting the materials. The result is rarely four legs; not because I don’t want to make chairs, but because working with new materials like wire mesh and polyester requires new forms.” <\/p>\n
The Heart Shaped Tapered Chair embodies the transformation that took place in Scandinavian design in the late fifties. The pure furniture of classical modernism is now joined by sculptural forms inspired by new technologies. At the same time, the shape and color of the Conical Chair are reminiscent of the “Pop Art” furniture of the sixties. <\/p>\n
