A suspended body, with no physical connection between the main parts of the chair, held together by gravity and friction of elements, the PK24™ is a paramount example of Kjaerholm’s iconic work. Also known as the ‘Hammock Chair’ the chaise longue is based upon the principle of design that only uses disconnected elements. With a combination of recognizable Kjaerholm materials, soft leather and wood wicker meet industrial steel in an effortless curve. Influenced by the elaborate Rococo period, the PK24™ Chaise Longue boasts an organic shape, optimizing comfort with an adjustable desired position. Prevalent across the globe, the PK24™ exudes character and sophistication whilst supplementing a touch of iconic industrial design to your home. The Fritz Hansen PK24™ is also available in a leather variation.
Poul Kjaerholm was a trained carpenter and continued his studies at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts. He had a particular interest in different construction materials; especially steel which he considered a natural material with the same artistic fineness as other natural materials.
