The History Of The Egg Chair

The original Egg was created by the Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen in 1958. The Egg Chair was the most outstanding part of his entire hotel design and has become a design classic with global success. It broke all design conventions with its curving shape, which Jacobsen was able to achieve by molding the inner structure out of foam and covering it with upholstery. The elliptical chair acts as a cocoon around the sitter, gently curving inwards the egg-shape it is named for.
