Hans Wegner
Danish furniture designer (1914–2007)
Hans Jørgensen Wegner (April 2, 1914 – January 26, 2007) was a Danish furniture designer.[4] His work, along with a concerted effort from several of his manufacturers, contributed to the international popularity of mid-century Danish design. His style is often described as Organic Functionality, a modernist school with emphasis on functionality. This school of thought arose primarily in Scandinavian countries with contributions by Poul Henningsen, Alvar Aalto, and Arne Jacobsen.
Wegner has been referred to as the "King of Chairs" for his proliferated work designing seating.[6] In his lifetime he designed over 500 different chairs, over 100 of which were put into mass production and many of which have become recognizable design icons.
“If only you could design just one good chair in your life...but you simply cannot.”[6]

Systematic use of the proposed learning concepts may support rehabilitation professionals to facilitate and challenge patient participation and learning during r
