Today some friends from Stockholm came with a lamp I bought for almost no money at all through a local advertisement. It is not an original Panton lamp but a replica. It is the FUN 1 STM lamp (The floor model of a FUN 1), probably a copy from China or so but since it […]
I just found a small sample of wallpaper designed by Verner Panton. I forgot I had it but thought you might wanted to see it.

At last! Verner has now got a road of his own. The “Verner Panton-weg” is close to the Vitra designmuseum in Weil Am Rhein, Germany. Marianne Panton was there to open it (see the picture). You can read more about it here: http://www.vitra.com/en-us/collage/architecture/verner-panton-weg/
Geometri 1 fabrics on the walls. Probably a fair in at the company Ahrend in Holland 1962/63. Dutch architects visiting MIRA-X in Hannover. Hannover. My friend with his cool tie! MIRA-X fair in Hannover.
Marianne and Verner Panton at the opening of Varna restaurant 1971. The restaurant. I guess the balls didn´t smell that good after some years of heavy smoking in there… You don´t see these thick velour dresses so often these days…
Velcome to a real MIRA-X party! (MIRA-X is the swiss company that made the biggest part of all Verner Panton fabrics). These pictures comes from a party 1985 in Hamburg. Where is that horse-dress now???
