Description
The Round Chair was created in a language of shape and construction that only Wegner spoke and it triggered the first ever, foreign report on Danish design in the American Interiors Magzine. Wegner evaluated the Round Chair in the way; “Personally, I think it’s my best achievement. Not because of its export success, but because I have been more through with it than anything else.” Famously recognised as the chair used by John F Kennedy and Richard Nixon when the met for the first ever televised election debate in 1960. It constituted a clear statement of modernism that underlined the signification of the historic event.
