The Josef Frank chair philosophy
For Josef Frank, the most important aspects when designing chairs were lightness, a transparent back and an organic form – something that is ingrained in Svenskt Tenn’s chair range even today.
According to Josef Frank, interior design and furnishings should always be based on human beings and this was the basis for his furniture designs as well. He stressed for example that the chair’s form – unlike for example, a piece of storage furniture – should be based on the anatomy of the human body, rather than be adapted to other furniture to create a particular style.
