Ahead of the curve —
Form follows function, and nowhere is that more apparent than in Arne Jacobsen’s biomorphic Egg. This sculpted chair cradles the human body, offering a softer, more feminine alternative to Modernism’s geometric lines.
Details
Hatching an idea
While his peers were experimenting with industrial materials, Arne Jacobsen focused on the upholstered armchair, believing it could be reinterpreted through a modernist lens. The Egg (1958) proves so. A molded piece of foam sits beneath the upholstery, creating the chair’s fluid curves. Sitters can turn toward a conversation area or away thanks to the swivel base and the chair also tilts back for lounging. This is the authentic Egg Chair by Republic of Fritz Hansen. Made in Poland.

Arne Jacobsen
Arne Jacobsen began training as a mason before studying at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, where he won a silver medal for a chair that was exhibited at the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs. Jacobsen’s work remains appealing and fresh today, combining free-form shapes with the traditional attributes of Scandinavian design, material and structural integrity.
