Arne Jacobsen (1902-1971) was a successful Danish architect and designer. In addition to the design of buildings, including the Royal hotel in Copenhagen, he also designed taps, cutlery and furniture. Functionalistic design and 'form follows function' were central to Jacobsen's designs. He was influenced by Mies van der Rohe, Le Cobusier, Charles Eames and the Bauhaus. Jacobsen in turn influenced many other designers.

In 1955 Arne Jacobsen developed the 'Series 7' Chair. Due to its striking design, model 3107 was quickly renamed the Butterfly Chair. The butterfly chair was one of the most commercial successes and definitively established the names of Arne Jacobsen and Fritz Hansen. The chair has a timeless design and a high level of seating comfort. It is therefore not surprising that the chair is still in production at Fritz Hansen.
