Arne Jacobsen
Designer
Arne Jacobsen (1902–1971) was a Danish architect and designer best known for shaping the look of modern Scandinavian design. A visionary of mid-century modernism, Jacobsen seamlessly blended architecture with industrial design, creating iconic pieces that remain relevant decades later.
He believed in “total design”—where buildings, furniture, and every interior detail were part of one cohesive vision. His collaborations with brands like Fritz Hansen and contributions to design classics such as the Egg Chair, Swan Chair, and Series 7 have secured his place in design history.

Natural Texture, Timeless Finish.
Each UF Orion I’ll Be Your Support Chair features an open-pore lacquer finish that lets the natural grain and pores of the wood shine through. Instead of masking its beauty, this technique highlights the unique texture and character of each piece. It's a finish that feels as authentic as it looks—bringing warmth, depth, and an organic charm to your space, while honoring the natural artistry of the wood itself.

Timeless Craft, Modern Precision.
The UF Orion I’ll Be Your Support Chair uses advanced solid wood pressing techniques to shape its seat and backrest. Honoring the spirit of the original design, we integrate modern CNC technology to achieve smoother curves, crisper edges, and greater structural integrity. This precise craftsmanship not only ensures a more refined look but also delivers lasting strength—proof that real quality is always in the details.

Ergonomic Curves, Vintage Soul.

Whether you’re seated for a quick meeting or a long evening gathering, the thoughtful contour reduces pressure points and enhances comfort. A simple detail that makes a lasting difference—designed for the way you truly sit.
