Finn Juhl Chair Design Collection

<p>A pioneer of Danish Modern design, Finn Juhl (1912–1989) was trained as an architect but was best known for his furniture and interior designs. In 1950 he was commissioned by Mr. and Mrs. Victor Zurcher to design a chair for their home. This collection contains four original drawings, photographs of a prototype chair, a letter from Juhl to the Zurchers, a cost estimate by cabinetmaker Niels Vodder, and two wood samples.</p> <p><a href="http://digital-libraries.artic.edu/cdm/search/collection/findingaids/searchterm/Juhl,Finn,%20Chair%20Design%20Collection/field/title/mode/all/conn/and/cosuppress/1">View finding aid.</a></p> <p>Collection access:<br>Collections may be accessed in the Franke Reading Room of the Research Center at The Art Institute of Chicago, by appointment only.
