Designs that become iconic are not always voluntary creations of the artist himself, but can also be requested pieces. Such is the case of the Egg chair, which was a requirement for the designer Arne Jacobsen, in which he requested to design a structure that was suitable to cradle the body and offer privacy. This was because the people who were going to make use of them were executives or businessmen who would handle business in the hotel lobby, so, to make it friendly the hotel decided to create an authentic and comfy piece to make their experience enjoyable.
