Verner Panton’s Visiona 2 – a revolutionary design concept

In the context of the Cologne furniture fair in 1970 Bayer in cooperation with the Danish designer Verner Panton presented Visiona 2, an almost breathtaking interior staging wallowing in colors and forms. On the occasion of the exhibition’s 40th anniversary we took another look at this much discussed concept.

VARNA PALACE

by BiKILL on 7th September 2009

Year: 1971

Verner Panton never limited himself only to the order of single objects, but put them always in a context, incorporated the whole space with his creation. The best example: the VARNA PALACE in Arhus/Denmark in which a restaurant was accommodated. Guest space, way, society halls, toilets – all rooms of the classical building found out an elementary transformation in 1971.

The TIVOLI BAR STOOL is based on the same prinziple as Verner Panton’s Tivoli Chair. A metal rack with a seat made out of threaded plastic string – these two different materials form a unique unit.

TIVOLI CHAIR

Year: 1955

It is supposed to be the Verner Panton’s first chair – the Tivoli Chair. Basically the chair existed of two elements which together formed a unity: a metal rack and a seat made out of plastic string or rattan. One could also say that the metal gave the massive frame which the plastic filled out in a filigree way.

Year: 1971

An organic manifestation, to a little mushroom similarly, characterizes Verner Panton’s PANTHELLA. The light, conceived for the ground and table application, adapts itself harmoniously in her sphere.

MOON LAMP, 1960 Verner PANTON

Year: 1960

The MOON LAMP rang in a new creation style of Verner Panton in 1960. Already in 1955 the designer had conceived droplights who consisted of a system of ring-shaped reflectors, with partly different profiles. These single elements were connected by threads with each other.

FLOWERPOT

FLOWERPOT, 1968 Verner PANTON

Year: 1968

Simply and nicely, with these both adjectives the FLOWERPOT by Verner Panton can be described the best way. Conceived as a table light, cover light and garden light, the design of the light sketched in 1968 was distinguished in 1972 with the federal price Gute Form of the Federal Republic of Germany.
