Furniture design
A richly illustrated presentation of Danish Mid-Century furniture

classics and the iconic designers who created them
Danish design plays an important part in what has come to be known as the Mid- Century Modern style. Timeless furniture pieces, such as the Hans J. Wegner's Y-Chair

and Finn Juhl's Chieftain Chair, influenced designers all over the world and are still

considered classics. This book is the first to present an overview of the furniture

created by Danish designers and architects, in the period between 1945-1975, tracing

the movement from beginning to end.

Design history expert Lars Dybdahl provides thorough descriptions and analyses of

particular furniture pieces, never failing to situate them within a historical and cultural

context. The book is richly illustrated, showcasing the aesthetic development from

post-war Denmark to the swinging sixties and seventies.
