The Ribbon chair features a continuous, flowing curve as its visual focal point, with the backrest gracefully wrapping like a ribbon, exuding lightness and elegance. The backrest and legs form a seamless connection, particularly the top curve of the backrest extending into the rear legs, creating a subtle forward-leaning visual dynamic.
The seat cushion is crafted with a three-dimensional, irregular soft upholstery, featuring cleanly beveled edges and a gently concave top, providing comfortable support while enhancing the chair’s refined details.
Hans Sandgren Jakobsen, born in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1963, graduated from the Danish Design School. As both a craftsman and a designer, Jakobsen believes that design should not only be beautiful but also functional and practical. He emphasizes that design is not art; it should result in products that are universally usable. With his craftsmanship skills, Jakobsen is able to perfectly combine functionality with minimalistic forms. His extensive travels to various countries (the United States, Japan, Spain, etc.) often provide him with inspiration and motivation for his creations.
In his design process, innovation, aesthetics, and functionality are three particularly important elements for Hans Sandgren Jakobsen. He constantly seeks to innovate and push boundaries based on existing designs, creating a simple and clean design aesthetic of "less is more" that stands the test of time and remains universally relevant.
