About the Designer:
Theo Ruth was a Dutch designer born in 1915 in Maastricht. He trained as a furniture designer at the Middelbare Kunstnijverheidsschool in Maastricht. In 1936 he joined Artifort where he specialised in living room furniture and in 1939 become head of design and development, a position he held until his death in 1971. Ruth had a major impact on Artifort’s design legacy. His most famous pieces include the 1952 Congo chair and the 1957 Penguin chair, both of which were constructed from two interlocking pieces that fit together without locks or screws (the latter’s original version featured a black and white cushion to mimic its namesake)  Notable designers; Pierre Paulin, Geoffrey Harcourt and Gerrit Rietveld also collaborated with Artifort’s design department during his tenure.

About the Designer:
Kai Kristiansen's designs have become some of the most well-known pieces to be created in the mid part of the 20th century and his name has become synonymous with Danish modern. He trained as a cabinet maker, graduating in 1948 and then went on to train under Kaare Klint at the Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He went on to open his own office and designed for many companies such as Schou Andersen Møbelfabrik, Feldballes, Magnus Olesen, Fritz Hansen, Axel Kjærsgaard and Heltborg. He designed many pieces of furniture such as sideboards, desks, chairs, tables, shelving units and cabinetry. But surely his most beloved and popular design is the #42 chair for Schou Andersen. Sought after for not only it's beautiful looks, but it's comfort, it has become one of the most iconic Danish modern pieces of furniture.
