THE ICONIC DESIGN OF THE VERNER PANTON PANTON CHAIR
The Panton Chair is a classic piece of furniture designed by the Danish designer Verner Panton in 1960. The chair was revolutionary at the time of its design because it was the first single-form injection-moulded plastic chair.
Panton chair or S chair
The Panton Chair was made possible by advances in technology which allowed for the creation of a single piece of plastic that could be shaped into a chair.
The chair's design is characterized by its futuristic, organic shape, that features an "S" curve shape. This S-shaped curve is a fundamental aspect of the chair's design, as it allows the chair to be stackable and also provides a comfortable seating experience. The Panton chair is still in production today and is considered an iconic example of mid-century modern design.
