LOUNGE
PK24TM
Design: Poul Kjærholm, 1965
The PK24TM chaise longue chair stands out as perhaps the most
recognisable chair in Fritz Hansen’s Poul Kjærholm’s collection. Inspired
by the Rococo period and the French chaise longue, Kjærholm used steel
to support a curvy, flowing form. He labelled it the ’Hammock Chair’ to
stress that it functions by suspending the body between two points.
Shell: Leather or wicker.
Base: Satin brushed stainless spring steel.
PK31TM
Design: Poul Kjærholm, 1958
The PK31TM chair and sofa series is a prime example of Poul Kjærholm’s
ability to work with exquisite materials and minimalism. In the search for
the ideal form, Kjærholm created the PK31 – a fusion of elegance, luxury
and comfort. The PK31 series is available as an armchair and a 2- or
3-seater sofa and features a matt chromed spring steel frame.
Shell: Fully upholstered in leather.
Base: Matt chromed spring steel.

PK80TM
Design: Poul Kjærholm, 1957
The PK80TM Daybed is the embodiment of Poul Kjærholm’s talent for
refining historical models and distilling design down to its very essence.

Rohe and Lilly Reich in 1930. It can be found today in the Museum
of Modern Art and around the world as a celebrated illustration of
craftsmanship and modern design.
