	Arne Jacobsen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Arne Jacobsen (February 11, 1902 – March 24, 1971) was a Danish Jewish architect and designer, exemplar of the "Danish Modern" style.
		Many of Jacobsen's furniture designs have become classic, including the Ant chair from 1952 and the Swan and the Egg which were both designed for the Radisson SAS Hotel.
		Jacobsen is, however, perhaps best known for the Model 3107 chair of 1955, known also as the "Number 7 Chair" which has sold over 5 million copies.

	Arne Jacobsen / Design Museum Collection : Architect + Furniture Designer (1902-1971) - Design/Designer Information
		Jacobsen believed that the design of every element of a building had to be harmonious - down to the doorknobs.
		Jacobsen interpreted this as being given carte blanche to obsess over everything from the exact shade of grey for the curtains, to the height of the cedar trees he planted in the quadrangle and the combination of fish - chub and golden orfe - to be placed in the pond.
		Jacobsen spent three years finessing the project and finally produced a collection of 17 objects for Stelton, all based on the shape of a cylinder.

		Visitors will also experience Jacobsen’s sense of space, material and form in a more tangible, sensual way through the latest audio-visual and computer-based technology and scenographic installations of Jacobsen’s work; including the famous Room 606 at the SAS Royal Hotel.
