Hans Olsen was a Danish furniture designer born in 1919. He began his career as a cabinetmaker, but, at the age of thirty, he decided to attend the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Art, where he studied architecture under esteemed architect-designer Kaare Klint. Olsens' remarkable designs from the 1950s are vivid examples of the beautiful diversity of Danish Modernism. His Fried Egg chair for Warm Nordic is a true Design Classic.
