Poul Kjærholm

The Danish furniture designer Poul Kjærholm (1929-1980) completed a cabinetmaking apprenticeship and then studied at the Kunsthåndværkerskolen in Copenhagen. From the mid-1950s he worked closely with the manufacturer Ejvind Kold Christensen; this produced the PK22 (1956), the PK80 Daybed (1957) and the PK24 Chaise Longue (1965). Kjærholm worked almost exclusively with steel as a visible structural material, combined with leather, rattan, marble or wood, and pursued a strictly minimalist, constructive approach. His designs are still produced today by Fritz Hansen under the name The Kjærholm Collection.
