Architect and designer Arne Jacobsen is famous for developing the Danish Modern style. One iconic example of this is his Swan chair.
In October's issue of ELLE DECOR, I read about The Pink Swan Project, launched by SUITE New York to benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Nineteen designers were invited to customize Swan chairs, which are being auctioned off at
charitybuzz.com through October 31.
I don't know about you, but I can't afford the designer-deluxe versions. Nevertheless, I can gawk at the artistry!
ELLE DECOR featured Madeline Weinrib's pink and white stripey ikat version.

That one had me at hello, so I just had to check out the others. Here are my faves:
|
Windsor Smith |
|
Alexandra Von Furstenberg |
|
Campion Platt |
|
D.B. Kim of PYR for Swarovski |
|
David Mann |
|
Julie Hillman |
|
Kelly Hoppen |
|
Victoria Hagan |
The Madeline Weinrab version is my favorite design-wise, but if I had to pick one to go in my house, the Campion Platt or Windsor Smith chairs would do it. I'm not a flashy gal, and those two are simple, yet luxe.
What's your favorite?
