Appreciating the 60’s Renaissance with the Hans Wegner Wing Chair

 Appreciating the 60’s Renaissance with the Hans Wegner Wing Chair

The 60’s is a decade that’s known for its glamour, retro appeal, and an emphasis on space-related futuristic themes in interior design – and of course, the lava lamp. In a time that appreciated looking ahead, the Hans Wegner Wing Chair came as a pleasant surprise for all.

With an amply bolstered beech frame resting on stainless steel legs, this chair was sleek, sophisticated, and designed to accentuate the resting posture of the human body.

So below, we’ll take a look at how you can appreciate the 60’s renaissance by furnishing your spaces with this chair:
