“The main purpose of my work is to provoke people into using their imagination. Most people spend their lives housing in dreary, grey-beige conformity, mortally afraid of using colours. By experimenting with colours, textiles and furniture and utilizing the latest technologies, I try to new ways, to try to encourage people to use their fantasy and make their surroundings more exciting.” – Verner Panton 1926-1998

LOVE THIS POST – although it just reminds me how badly I want his S chair. And that pendant in the second last photo is so incredible. He is on the top of my genius list.
