An icon of Scandinavian functionalism

The Corona Chair is one of the most striking and experimental creations in Danish furniture design. Designed by Poul M. Volther in 1964, the chair was quickly recognised as a masterpiece of modernist design. With its sculptural form and geometric elegance, the ej5 Corona Chair was a groundbreaking interpretation of contemporary functional design principles. The name ‘Corona’ comes from the fascinating images of the sun's corona, taken during a solar eclipse. Volther was inspired by this scenic phenomenon and translated it into a chair with a light, floating silhouette. However, the chair was also created with reference to the human spine - a symbol of both strength and flexibility. Over time, the Ej5 Corona Chair has achieved iconic status. It has been featured in countless films, fashion campaigns and music videos, where its unique shape makes it a visual statement. The Corona armchair is not just a functional piece of seating, but a sculptural expression in itself, combining form and function in a sublime way. With its continued popularity, the Corona design is further proof of how timeless design can remain relevant year after year.

A design created to perfection

The Corona Chair is a technical and aesthetic stroke of genius. Its distinctive design consists of four elliptical, padded cushions that float in a thoughtful, symmetrical arrangement. These cushions are mounted on a strong yet lightweight spring steel frame, creating the illusion of a floating structure. One of the most innovative aspects of the Corona armchair is the distance between the upholstered cushions. This allows you to customise your sitting position by resting your arms between the different levels of the backrest. This provides natural ergonomics and extra comfort - ideal for both relaxation and more formal settings. The materials are carefully selected, with craftsmanship playing a central role. The upholstery is done in exclusive textiles and leather variants that complement the organic shapes of the chair. The chair rests on a swivel frame in matt chrome-plated steel, adding a modern industrial edge to the otherwise sculptural expression. Today, the chair is recognised as a study in perfected design and technical innovation, where functionalism and artistic vision come together.

Poul M. Volther - A pioneer of Danish functionalism

Behind the Corona Chair is Poul M. Volther, one of the most significant figures in Danish modernism. As part of FDB Møbler, Volther worked to create functional and beautiful designs that could be brought into the modern home. Inspired by the Bauhaus movement, he believed that form should always follow function - a principle clearly seen in the Corona armchair. However, his approach was not purely rational. He constantly sought new ways to challenge convention, and Corona is a perfect example of this ambition. By creating a chair that played with geometric shapes and visual lightness, he demonstrated his ability to balance the sculptural with the practical. Volther's designs have a subtle elegance and a unique sense of proportion and materials. Although he often worked with a minimalist approach, his furniture was never cold or unapproachable. The Ej5 Corona Chair is a clear expression of this philosophy - a design that emphasises the natural movements of the human body and creates an unrivalled seating experience. Today, the Corona Chair is more relevant than ever. Its presence in modern interiors and exclusive campaigns confirms that Volther's design legacy lives on. A true design icon that unites function, comfort and timeless beauty.
