Note: Designed in 1956, this was the most successful and elegant of all the Hvidt & Mølgaard designs, as witnessed by its appearance in the first James Bond film, ‘Dr. NO’, and in the American television period drama, ‘Mad Men’ (set in a 1960s New York advertising agency), where the chair was featured in lead character Don Draper’s office.
