Denmark-based Verpan—namesake of legendary Danish architect and designer Verner Panton—is a design company working to preserve, reissue and recontextualise Panton's radiant body of work. From minute objects to fully immersive environments, Verner Panton's lighting and furniture is a testament to his playful and unconventional spirit. Verpan's collection includes some of his most celebrated designs and recently rediscovered pieces.
Born in 1926, Verner Panton came to represent a new direction and energy in Danish design history-deeply original, daringly experimental-for close to five decades. Creating visually distinct furniture, lighting and objects as well as immersive interiors, his spirit and work remains radically ahead of the curve. Concerned with the future and our capacity to imagine it, his vast output is full of vibrant and playful pieces with a social character, made to be enjoyed, for pleasure.
Breaking with the mainstream by pushing the boundaries of color, form and materials, he created extraordinary atmospheres and objects that continue to offer groundbreaking perspectives on life, work and interaction.
