Jacobsen's bespoke furniture and lighting at St. Catherine's College, Oxford.
it was a unified architectural and interior design scheme for St. Catherine’s College, Oxford, which involved the design of site-specific furniture. Jacobsen’s work combines free-form sculptural shapes with the traditional attributes of Scandinavian design, material and structural integrity.
Influenced by Le Corbusier, Gunnar Asplund and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Jacobsen embraced a functionalist approach from the outset. He was among the first to introduce modernist ideas to Denmark and create industrial furniture that built upon on its craft-based design heritage.
- I also like his swan chair and egg chair..
