Verner Panton, born in Gamtofte, Denmark, studied at Odense Technical College before enrolling as an architecture student at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. He worked from 1950-1952 in the architectural firm of Arne Jacobsen and founded an independent studio for architecture and design in 1955. He first attracted wider attention with the geometric forms of his furniture designs for the firm Plus-linje. In the following years, Panton created numerous designs for seating furniture and lighting.
