Panton Chair Classic
Design: Verner Panton, 1959 - Sabine Marcelis Edition 2024
Verner Panton was one of the most influential figures in the evolution of design during the 1960s and '70s. Along with his experimental approach to forms and colours, he was captivated by the potential of plastic, a novel material at the time. His aim was to create a comfortable chair made in one piece that could be used anywhere. After searching for a manufacturer for several years, Panton came into contact with Vitra in 1963. Together they developed the Panton Chair, which was first presented in 1967.
Series production of the Panton Chair commenced in 1967. It was hailed as a sensation and received numerous prizes. One of the earliest models is now in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Today the Panton Chair is regarded as a classic of modern furniture design. The original version of the chair in rigid polyurethane foam with a glossy lacquer finish is marketed under the name Panton Chair Classic.
The Sabine Marcelis Edition 2024 is available in seven colours derived from the palette used by the Dutch artist and designer when furnishing the VitraHaus Loft.
