In 2009 Dwell magazine published an article about Danish Designer Jens Risom (written by Amber Bravo). I had seen some of his beautiful pieces in the past but had no idea who made them.
The article is worth reading so I won't paraphrase. But suffice it to say, our gent all the way to the right is the only one still designing (and still living).
(thanks Design Within Reach for republishing the 1961 Playboy centerfold of the gentlemen designers. Please note, however, that Ray Eames is not pictured. I guess she would have ruined the continuity of the photo)
Feature: Made in: Denmark
