» In 1958, legendary Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen together with furniture design company Fritz Hansen conceived the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen -- the first ever design-driven hotel in the world. Believing in "Gesamtkunstwerk", meaning "the total environment", every single aspect of the hotel, from wallpaper to cutlery, was designed to harmonise perfectly with the others. Yet it was Jacobsen's simple but sculptural chairs, designed for lobbies and lounges, that caught the eye of aesthetes. Technologically innovative, lacking in any straight lines, and full of seductive but simple curves, the timeless Egg, Swan and Drop chairs eventually became his global legacy.
