Meet the designer

Poul M. Volther was an important champion of Scandinavian functionalism. Although rooted in a rationalist design dogma and inspired by the purpose-driven mindset of the Bauhaus movement, Volther was eager to experiment with new methodologies. His unerring sense of detail and appreciation of material properties resulted in simple, stylised furniture with a subtle yet striking aesthetic.

The name Corona was supposedly inspired by time-lapse photographs of a solar eclipse and its surrounding corona, the outermost part of the Sun's atmosphere.

It has also been said that the inspiration came from the human spine's shape, strength and flexibility.
