The My Own Chair Footstool has been designed in the same spirit as Flemming Lassen's original iconic chair, reflecting his love of rounded shapes, simple forms and precise detailing, to enable the full relaxation effect.

Credited for his role in bringing functionalism to Denmark, Flemming Lassen was an architect and designer noted for his exacting craftsmanship and naive expression. Lassen drew much of his inspiration from the architect Mies van der Rohe and the tenets of the Bauhaus artistic movement (a less is more approach focused on form, function and novel materials counterbalanced with human needs). His original and distinctive designs with timeless silhouettes still resonate today.
