Poul Volther

Danish
Poul Volther was a Danish furniture designer born in 1923 and passed away in 2001. He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, where he trained as a furniture maker and architect.
 
Volther's furniture designs were known for their simplicity, functionality, and attention to detail. He was particularly interested in exploring the relationship between form and function, creating furniture pieces that were both aesthetically pleasing and highly practical.
 
Volther's most famous design is the Panton Chair, which he created in collaboration with fellow Danish designer Verner Panton in 1960. The Panton Chair was one of the first chairs to be made entirely out of plastic, and its innovative design earned it a place in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
 
Volther's other notable furniture designs included chairs, tables, and storage units, many of which were made from natural materials like wood and leather. His work has been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, and is highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts today.
