Egg Chair
Arne Jacobsen designed the Egg™ for the lobby and reception areas in the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. The commission to design every element of the hotel building and furniture was Jacobsen’s grand opportunity to put his theories of integrated design and architecture into practice. The Egg™ is one of the triumphs of Jacobsen’s total design - a sculptural contrast to the building’s almost exclusively vertical and horizontal surfaces. The Egg™ sprang from a new technique, which Jacobsen was the first to use; a strong foam inner shell underneath the upholstery. Like a sculptor, Jacobsen strove to find the shell’s perfect shape in clay at home in his own garage. Because of the unique shape, the Egg™ guarantees a bit of privacy in otherwise public spaces and is ideal for lounge and waiting areas as well as the home.
