With its origins dating back to the late 1950s, the Gesture Chair boasts a graceful silhouette that perfectly fits to your body for optimal comfort during meals. Olsen’s aim was to create a chair that exudes a welcoming and playful vibe while also fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Featuring luxurious fabric seat upholstery, the Gesture Chair adds a touch of elegance to any room and accentuates its mid-century design roots. Also available in various leather configurations or without upholstery, allowing for complete customisation to suit individual preferences.
Hans Olsen’s remarkable designs from the 1950s are vivid examples of the beautiful diversity of Danish Modernism. This Danish architect and industrial designer took on the classic virtues of the Academy of Fine Arts and the great master, Kaare Klint, but opted for a more playful and experimental approach to furniture design.
Hans Olsen challenged contemporary production methods and much of his inspiration came from the opportunities offered by moulding wood. A refusal to compromise in terms of comfort, functionality and aesthetics is Hans Olsen’s trademark, and his iconic design attracts just as much attention today as it did back then. Designs such as Warm Nordic's Fried Egg Lounge Chair are among Olsen's classic works.
