“美好的事物无法创造幸福，但糟糕的事物却可以毁掉很多幸福。”——Finn Juhl

“艺术就是艺术，椅子就是椅子”——对于建筑师兼家具设计师芬恩·尤尔（Finn Juhl）而言，这其中没有灰色地带。然而，尤尔的设计往往在纯艺术和应用艺术之间取得微妙的平衡。作为丹麦家具设计“黄金时代”的领军人物之一，尤尔在美国的委托创作和合作项目进一步彰显了其影响力，在提升人们对丹麦椅子美学和工艺的关注方面发挥了重要作用。

《生活、工作、世界》讲述了芬恩·尤尔的故事，从1930年左右现代主义的突破，到20世纪40年代和50年代细木工家具的鼎盛时期，再到20世纪90年代他那些几乎被遗忘的杰作的重新出现，其精湛的工艺再次受到人们的赞赏。该书最初由斯特兰伯格出版社（Strandberg）于2018年出版，次年由菲顿出版社（Phaidon）再版，新增了更多页数和400多幅插图。全新“精选展品”单元聚焦 Juhl 最具代表性的设计作品，包括他的酋长椅 (Chieftain Chair) 和贝克沙发 (Baker Sofa)。Finn

Juhl (1912-1989) 曾在丹麦皇家美术学院师从 Kay Fisker 学习建筑。在 Vilhelm Lauritzen 的公司工作十年后，他于 1945 年成立了自己的工作室。1951 年，他的作品入选芝加哥“优秀设计”展，并完成了纽约联合国总部托管理事会会议厅的设计。

"One cannot create happiness with beautiful objects, but one can spoil quite a lot of happiness with bad ones." ―Finn Juhl

"Art is art, and a chair is a chair"―for the architect and furniture designer Finn Juhl, there were no gray areas. Yet Juhl's designs often strike a delicate balance between the fine and applied arts. As one of the leading figures in the "golden age" of Danish furniture design―amplified by his commissions and collaborations in the United States―Juhl was instrumental in drawing attention to the aesthetics and craftsmanship of the Danish chair.

Life, Work, World tells Finn Juhl's story from the breakthrough of modernism around 1930 through the heights of cabinet-maker's furniture in the 1940s and 1950s, and up to the reemergence of his near-forgotten masterpieces in the 1990s, their sublime execution admired afresh. Originally published by Strandberg in 2018 then reissued by Phaidon the following year, this expanded edition includes more pages and over 400 illustrations. The new "Selected Presentations" section spotlights Juhl's most iconic designs, including his Chieftain Chair and Baker Sofa.

Finn Juhl (1912–89) studied architecture under Kay Fisker at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. After working for Vilhelm Lauritzen's firm for 10 years, he established his own studio in 1945. In 1951 he was featured in the Good Design exhibition in Chicago, and completed the Trusteeship Council Chamber at the Headquarters of the United Nations in New York.
