Poul Kjærholm

Poul Kjærholm's enthusiasm for working with steel, and joining it with different materials, prompted his numerous famous furniture pieces. These darling plans incorporate the PK9 Chair-a sensitive and shockingly durable piece made of treated steel.

"Steel's useful potential isn't the main thing that intrigues me; the refraction of light on its surface is a significant piece of my creative work. I think about steel as a material with a similar imaginative legitimacy as wood and calfskin," he once said.

Straightforwardness was constantly viewed as in Kjaerholm's commitments. "We should try to keep our designs as simple as possible."
