Ame Jacobsen (plate 5A) continued to experiment in curvature forms through simplifications. Modern material added to their advantage in in term of compressing and bending them industrially. Spanish Chair (plate 5B & 5C)) designed in plywood is created in curvature to support the human anatomy. Scandinavian designers understood the ergonomic aspects of human body and comfort. Initial Bauhaus Design was conceived on straight lines which appeared to be in many cases uncomfortable since human beings have more curvature than anatomy based on straight line. Therefore, Scandinavian designs flourished and became quite successful in synthesizing straight planes and curvature while maintaining the spirit of minimalism. Thus the elegance of straight and curvature is duly respected and combined during the Mid Century Modern Design profession.
