THE STORY BEHIND THE POUL VOLTHER CORONA CHAIR
Poul M. Volther created the Corona Chair in 1964. Some say it was inspired by time-lapse photography of a lunar eclipse and its surrounding corona. Others believe the inspiration was the strength and flexibility of a human spine. We think it was a bit of both. The name of the Corona Chair and sculptural weightlessness are strong indicators of the lunar influences. However, if you look at the chair straight on, it does resemble a human spine with each component working to support the back when seated.
