PK4™ LOUNGE CHAIR
Designed By Poul Kjærholm
The PK4™ is a modern, relaxed lounge chair designed by Poul Kjærholm in 1952. It radiates the designer’s distinctive elegance through a light, minimalistic expression in steel and flag halyard and perfectly exemplifies Kjærholm's visionary approach where art and design intersect.
DESIGNER
POUL KJÆRHOLM
1929-1980 The man behind masterpieces like the PK22™ had a fascination for steel and a love of natural materials.
A trained cabinetmaker who completed his studies at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts, Poul Kjærholm had a particular interest in construction materials; especially steel, which he considered a material deserving the artistic respect that was commonly awarded to wood.
Poul Kjærholm initiated a collaboration with furniture manufacturer Ejvind Kold Christensen in 1955, and that collaboration continued for the rest of Kjærholm’s life with the two families remaining close to this very day.
Two years after the designer’s passing, the Kjærholm trustees entrusted Fritz Hansen with the production and sales of ‘The Kjærholm Collection’– designs developed by Poul Kjærholm from 1951 to 1967.
Fritz Hansen is honoured to continue production to this day and to distribute Poul Kjærholm’s furniture to architects and private customers around the world.
