Hans J. Wegner
Hans J. Wegner is widely considered to be one of the leading figures in 20th century furniture design – and a driving force in the "Danish Modern" movement that changed the way people looked at furniture in the 1950s and 1960s.
A prolific designer of a wide variety of furniture and other items, Wegner is particularly revered for his chairs. He designed more than 500 of them and is often referred to as "the master of the chair".
