I saw this chair at the Danish pavilion at the Venice Biennale of Architecture and I really liked it. The black part is made of rubber and the stripes are rubber as well. I've looked at the webpages of all the furniture companies I could think of, but I have clearly forgotten one. I'm thinking it must be danish, because everything else there was danish ( including the Mermaid Ventura LCDs ), but as always, I could be wrong.

And even if you don't know who makes this or what's it called, it would also be helpful if you could direct me to a "beoworld" for designers/furniture or something like that.

 

This is the first chair designed by Verner Panton. It's called the Tivoli chair as it was designed for a restaurant in Tivoli, Copenhagen in 1955. Verner Panton also designed the world famous S-chair.

Thanks beocool. I know Panton quite well ( although it seems not as much as I've thought in the first place : ) as his S-chair is my absolute favourite chair and I've also done some projects about his work at school, but I didn't know this one. It looks quite different from his later work, which to me seems much more flashy. I'm very pleasantly surprised, though : )
