The Grasshopper, a chair designed by Danish designer Finn Juhl 81 years ago, has been relaunched in Milan Design Week’s Salone del Mobile furniture fair. “It seemed natural that this chair should be brought back to life at some point,†said co-founder of House of Finn Juhl, Hans Henrik Srensen.
The Grasshopper was one of Finn Juhl’s first attempts at expressing his artistic freedom in the form of furniture. With a functionalistic approach and a great interest in modern art, Finn Juhl managed to create an entirely new and artistic mode of expression.
