Some time ago I was lucky to be offered a hugh collection of documents, drawings, photos, and test pieces from Verner Panton´s work. As an example of it you can here see test pieces of different qualities for Verner Panton´s wall-to-wall carpets made by Mira-X in 1976. In the first picture you see the upper […]

NEW PANTON BOOK
A new Panton book with about 350 pages from Strandberg publishing in Copenhagen just came out. Since Pantonworld was contributing with ca 40 pictures + info, I planned to go there to meet Marianne Panton and others for the release venue. Then I realised I couldn’t get my scheduale together to have time for everything. […]
CANTINE CURTAINS
Next step to set up the Salon Rouge cantine was to put up some Mira-X “see through” curtains in red. These curtains doesn’t come from Salon Rouge originally but they come from another cantine Verner Panton made the interior for.
TURQUOISE ROOM UPDATE
I have now collected some pieces that could look cool in a future turquoise room. The Big Flowerpot lamp will be more over the couch table and there will also be a big blue/turquoise Tiscalong carpet under the Pantonova sofa. Just need to take everything away again and start painting the walls and ceiling…
NEW PANTONWORLD PICTURES
At last some time to take new pictures of the aubergine room with a real camera.
RELAXING ROOM
At last I had time to move out the 700 kilos of enamel panels from Salon Rouge out of this aubergine room. They were stored here until I had the energy to lift them one floor up. My back are killing me but this room is a little more relaxing like this!
ORANGE ROOM
Just finished painting the orange room after 5 new layers of paint. This colour is much better than the first orange we tried. I will probably put up Ring lamps above the chair.
TURQUOISE ROOM
The turquoise stairway is almost ready painted. I hanged the typ G lamp here as some sort of “altar”.
LONG LAMP
A chromed “SP1” Spiral Lamp with extra long threads arrived today. This very lamp was bought in 1971 and the previous owner have had it in their vaccation appartement since then. The condition is like new, even after 45 years. It measures 140 cm tall and it’s the first time I have seen this longer […]
TWIN CHAIR
The world’s best furniture for videogames when you are twins, the 3D-carpet from 1969. Here you see some more pictures from the newly painted aubergine and red room at Pantonworld.
SPIEGEL LAMPS
Some pictures of the new Spiegel Lamps in fiberglass. The plan is to use this three together with the light red I have since earlier.
