Vladimir Kagan was ahead of his time when it came to ergonomic design, creating pieces that supported the body while simultaneously making a style statement. This contemporary stool from the Kagan studio carries on in that tradition. The hand-carved walnut legs mimic the animalistic nature of classic Kagan designs, as they lead into a curvaceous ergonomic seat that was inspired by Western and English riding saddles.
Designer
Vladimir Kagan
Vladimir Kagan pioneered the enduring voice of midcentury modern design. A designer of not simply furniture but what he called “vessels to hold the human body,” Kagan joined the portfolio in 2016, personally entrusting his legacy to HOLLY HUNT. Kagan’s designs radiate his vitality and passion for discovery. Born in Worms, Germany in 1927, he emigrated to the U.S. at the age of 11, just before the dawn of WWII. From his father’s repeated admonishment “Ehre das Handwerk!” (“Honor the handcraft!”), Vladimir inherited an appreciation of artisan skill which, combined with his innovative design sensibility, was key to his success.
