Arne Jacobsen 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 recognized for his "total design" approach evident 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 working 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.

A Design Landmark: SAS Royal Hotel

In 1960, Jacobsen crafted the original Series chair design for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark. This significant milestone in his career saw the original Series become a symbol of sophistication. As a defining example of mid-century modern design, it gained worldwide recognition. Households, hotels, and offices around the globe adopted it, making it a staple of modern interior design.

Inspired by Vision and Home: Jacobsen House

Various sources inspired Jacobsen's Series. Among these, his own residence, the Jacobsen House, stands out as a notable source of inspiration. Jacobsen designed and built this house for his family in 1929. Subsequently, the house showcased design elements that later became characteristic of the Series and Jacobsen's other works. These elements included clean lines, simple forms, and functional yet elegant aesthetics. Within the walls of this house, Jacobsen developed the sofa and chair set, laying the foundation for the Series' harmonious blend of style and comfort.
