Dining Room Table and Chairs by Verner Panton

I came across this shot of an English couple's NYC apartment on NYMag.com. I love this dining set.

I'd like it better in gold, but that's how I feel about pretty much everything that's not edible. Modern but not harsh, I think it's the perfect size for my imaginary apartment I'm constantly decorating.

Had to google Verner Panton and wikipedia tells me "is considered one of Denmark's most influential 20th-century furniture and interior designers." Alright then . He also invented the S chair, which, while I don't currently have a place for it in my imaginary apartment, is a pretty pivotal piece in the history of furniture.
