In designing the Panton Chair, the first one-piece plastic cantilever chair, Panton produced one of the most famous chair designs of this century. Verner Panton (1926-1998), the Danish designer who made Switzerland his home, was much more than a master of sixties design. Even though he favoured extravagant designs and the use of strong vibrant colours, his work was unmistakably rooted in the elegant functionalism of the 1950s. This illustrated book contains a series of essays on the individual aspects of Panton's diverse work; from his chairs and sofas to lighting design, textile work, spectacular room designs and the exciting development of the Panton Chair.
