PANTON’S CURTAINS
Today was a really interesting day! Just picked up some pairs of different curtains from an appartement in Copenhagen. They have hanged here since the 70:ies when Verner Panton’s brother lived here! I also got the original curtain rod in a golden finish. Earlier it was also a red wall-to-wall carpet in the bedroom and […]
PINK BEDROOM
Next room to paint is our bedroom wich will be all pink / magenta. Really poor pictures here but I just took them as a comparison when we have done a little more later on. In the end it will have the wall and ceiling colour you see in the picture below from our old […]
BLUE ROOM
The blue office is also taking shape. I especially like the Pantonaef model above the aquarium. It has some chromed plates in it wich reflects the light. Those chromed plates and also some different purple plates comes from Verner Panton´s own pre-serie of the Pantonaef system wich he developed 1975, before he contacted the swiss […]
SALON ROUGE
The hardest work is now done and the next step is to finish some details and paint some walls ready. I will probably also hang longer red “see-through” curtains in the window. After this room I will start to make a yellow kitchen wich is next to this room.
FLOWERPOT CLUSTER
At last! Everything is connected and up. Some small adjustments are left and the ceiling panels need to be back on place but at last some light over the dining table.
ADJUSTING
Just started to adjust the 10 Flowerpot lamps for a cluster. We are not sure how high the Flowerpot lamps shall hang but we will try different heights and check against surrounding patterns. Also if possible to see eachother under it…
HANGING
Something from outher space is sucking up our table. I now realise the incredible work they must have gone through with a complete restaurant with these Flowerpot clusters hanging through an enamel ceiling. I will take a break for today and continue tomorrow – hopefully with light in the lamps.
CLEANING
Just picked out and washed 10 small Flowerpot lamps out of the boxes from Salon Rouge. The electric needs to be re-installed before I put them up in the ceiling so I have some hours of work ahead.
AVALON HOTEL IN GÖTEBORG
A lot of Verner Panton’s Cone Chair at Avalon Hotel in Göteborg, Sweden.

PYRAMID LAMP IN RED
This tall red Pyramid lamp is also new. I can’t tell for sure it is designed by Panton but it looks very much like Verner’s prototype lamp in white next to it.
