One cannot create happiness with beautiful objects, but one can spoil quite a lot of happiness with bad ones. --Finn Juhl
Art is art, and a chair is a chair--for the architect and furniture designer Finn Juhl, there were no gray areas. Yet Juhl's designs often strike a delicate balance between the fine and applied arts. As one of the leading figures in the golden age of Danish furniture design--amplified by his commissions and collaborations in the United States--Juhl was instrumental in drawing attention to the aesthetics and craftsmanship of the Danish chair.
Finn Juhl (1912-89) studied architecture under Kay Fisker at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. After working for Vilhelm Lauritzen's firm for 10 years, he established his own studio in 1945. In 1951 he was featured in the Good Design exhibition in Chicago, and completed the Trusteeship Council Chamber at the Headquarters of the United Nations in New York.
