Hans Wegner

Hans Wegner is a renowned Danish designer, who is credited with making the mid-century Danish design style popular. Hans Wegner style is often described as organic functionality, which is a modern school of thought with a strong focus on function. So, if you are someone who likes all furniture to serve its purpose (and do it really well), Hans Wegner’s designs are a great fit for you. Hans Wegner’s talent for top designs was obvious from a young age. He was a child apprentice to a master cabinetmaker after which he joined the army. After completing service, he went to the Danish School of Arts and Crafts and the Architectural Academy in Copenhagen. So, when you admire that gorgeous Han Wegner chair, you know it is the work of someone who had the education and experience in interior design from an early age. Hans Wegner chairs, be it the Wegner shell chair or the Hans Wegner dining chair, add that Scandinavian sensibility to your abode. Nothing looks as gorgeous as Danish functionalism done right, if you ask us. Looking for Wegner patio furniture?
