The classic look and feel of the Egg Chair allows it to stand out as one of the most talked about and celebrated of Arne Jacobsen's designs. Initially built for the Royal SAS Hotel in Copenhagen along with the Swan Chair and AJ Floor Lamp, the chair shares the class and contemporary construct of the hotel itself. What is also remarkable about this design is that it is still extremely relevant in contemporary interior design and is strongly recognised in modern and traditional scandinavian design. The design does not conform to the conventional shape of a chair with arm rests. The Egg Chair shape is ideal for relaxing, allowing your body to sink into the chair. The characteristic shape also gives you the space to unwind in a number of relaxing positions.  The Egg Chair is undeniably successful and will always be a landmark in your home.

The definitive arm rests and the sharp corners of the Wing Chair gives it a  majestic feel. This form provides exemplary support and comfort especially for your upper body. The chair was designed by Hans Wegner a minimalist who embraced simple design structures and the potential of materials. For extra comfort you can choose to unwind in soft cashmere but if you are after a more distinguished look, the chair is available in leather as well. Speaking of comfort, the Standard Chair would also be a classic fit for your home.

The design for the Standard Chair is extremely simple which is what makes it such a success in interior design. Jean Prouve states the simple fact that most of our weight goes to the back legs of the chair. This is a vital part of the design process and as a result, steel tubing is used for the front legs as they don't take as much pressure while the back legs are formed with hollow steel frames which provide secure balance and support. The most successful designs have been those which are simple and make solid use of natural materials.

The Artichoke Lamp is one of Poul Henningsen's most famous inventions and with good reason as it is a triple threat: it looks exceptional, it provides glorious lighting beyond comparison suitable for various moods, and of course the creative element that has gone into the lighting design itself. All these significant factors form the base to producing such a complex and magnificent lighting fixture, one that would look stunning hanging in your living room. Poul Henningsen's Artichoke Lamp is discussed widely  in terms of the elegance and fascinating aesthetic value it brings to an interior but it is also worth mentioning that his dedication to lighting design has formed a separate culture in modern interior design which will be recognised and embraced for years to come.

The most successful designs have been those which are simple and make solid use of natural materials. Having said that, the designer's triumph is contingent on the risks they take as dedicated visualists in modern interior design.
