Of course Im very proud that there is still somuch interest in my husbandҒs design andhis lifes work. It would have made Verner happy, and it certainly makes me happy.Verner had very clear attitudes regarding hiswork and regarding shape, colours and func-tion. At the same time he made consciousand brave use of different materials. Also ina way and a combination which often led to his contemporaries disparaging the Ҕtime-lessness of his design. The great interest inhis design today proves the opposite. Marianne Panton > www.verpan.dk size="-1">
