Panton used the textile design geometry I to IV (son I`ll post his textiles) for floor, walls and ceillings in order to give the room a uniform image. The chairs are various versions of the Cone Chair, and grouped around the tables and the Topan lights work together to divide the large room into individual seating areas with an intimate note.
