Arne Jacobsen (1902-1971) was an influential Danish designer and architect known for his contributions to Architectural Functionalism. He began his career after graduating from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 1927. Jacobsen is renowned for his “total design” approach, exemplified in projects like the SAS Royal Hotel Copenhagen, where he designed every element of the project from its architecture, to its finishes, furniture, lighting, accessories, and more, with all pieces meant to work in harmony with each other. His furniture designs include the Ant Chair (1952), the 3300 series sofas and chairs (1956), and the Egg Chair (1958). Jacobsen’s work, which prioritized utilitarianism and simplicity, earned him the Danish Architects’ Association Honorary Medal and the ID Prize for Product Design.
