The Giraffe chair was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1959, specifically for the restaurant at the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. Its high back and padded armrests make for a cosy and comfortable seat. The Little Giraffe™ chair is an evolution of its iconic predecessor – a striking rendition suitable for hospitality, meeting rooms or dining spaces. The four-legged Little Giraffe model fuses Arne Jacobsen’s sculptural aesthetic with impeccable upholstery. The chair is slightly higher and wider than the original design, appealing to contemporary taste and comfort.

About the designer:
It is said that as a child growing up in Copenhagen, Arne Jacobsen painted over the Victorian wallpaper in his bedroom. But young Arne did not cover his walls with typical childish drawings or paint the ornate wallpaper boyish blue. Instead, he decided to paint his room entirely white. His decision may seem commonplace today, but in the early twentieth century white walls were not yet in fashion. From the very beginning, Arne Jacobsen was ahead of his time.
