For many years, The PK8™ existed only as a prototype in the home of Hanne Kjærholm, the wife of Poul Kjærholm. The PK8 was put into production in close collaboration with Hanne Kjærholm and introduced to the public in connection with the 2007 exhibition about Poul Kjærholm, “The furniture architect”, at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, north of
Copenhagen.

The special form of the chair, with its composition of sinuous
curves resembles Kjærholm’s cantilevered chair from 1953, but the
three legs, which shape compliments the seating element, give the chair
an outstanding expression of its own.
