A style suggestive
of great adventure
Kaare Klint introduced the KK47000 Safari Chair in 1933 as a collapsible, modern version of its historical
archetype, the Indian Roorkee Chair. Klint effortlessly transformed a historical archetype into a modern,
collapsible chair. His design is a hallmark of sophistication, well-conceived proportions, and remarkable
material effects. The Safari Chair was first presented in 1933 at the Copenhagen Cabinet Makers’
Guild Exhibition. Today, the design is celebrated as one of Klint’s most iconic, reflecting his systematic
approach to furniture design based on the human anatomy. The KK97170 Safari Footstool was designed
by Kaare Klint’s son, Esben, after his father’s death. Easily assembled without tools, it is crafted to match
the Safari Chair, offering a gentle place to rest one’s feet.
