Verner Panton


"The main purpose of my work is to provoke people into using their imagination.
Most people spend their lives housing in dreary, grey-beige conformity, mortally afraid of using colours.
(...)
By experimenting with lighting, colours, textiles and furniture and using the latest technologies, I try to show new ways, to encourage people to use their fantasy and make their surroundings more exciting.
"
