Panton x Montana

Verner Panton is considered one of Denmark's most influential 20th-century furniture and interior designers, not to mention one of the most avant-gardes. During his career, he created innovative and futuristic designs in a variety of materials and in vibrant, exotic colours.

The main purpose of my work is to provoke people into using their imagination and make their surroundings more exciting.

Verner Panton

A shared world of ideas and colours

When Peter J. Lassen, the founder of Montana, first met the young Danish architect Verner Panton in 1956, neither of them was aware that this would be the beginning of a close friendship and life-long collaboration.

Between them arose a constant dialogue about design in which their shared world of ideas was surrounded by great mutual respect. The result was a large number of interesting and innovative pieces of furniture designed by Verner Panton. They were brought to life through a passion for design with form, creativity and functionality as the driving forces, not to mention an approach to colours, whitch was unique at the time; Panton use of colours has been a great source of inspiration for the foundation of Montana's colour universe.

Pantonova – a modular wire seating system

The strong bond and shared history between Verner Panton and Peter J. Lassen has made it a natural choice for Montana to manufacture several of Verner Panton's designs - including the Pantonova modular wire seating from 1971.

The Pantonova offers endless applications in contemporary contexts, from lobbies, receptions, lounge areas and retail spaces - to the private living rooms of design aficionados.
