The Swan chair was designed in 1958 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark. New technology allowed Arne Jacobsen to work with new materials and create new shapes. The Swan chair is made from foam that allows for it to be a continuous, single piece and shape. It is produced from the Republic of Fritz Hansen.

The final image is of the interior of the SAS Royal Hotel.
