Arne Vodder was born in Denmark in 1926. He trained as a cabinetmaker and architect at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, under Finn Juhl , graduating in 1947. He then worked as a designer for Hindsgaul in Copenhagen, mainly in office design. In 1950, Vodder launched his own architecture and design studio with Anton Borg. Over the years, the studio moved several times, always to Copenhagen, before settling permanently in the northern suburb of Holte. Until the 1970s, the duo collaborated on furniture designs, as well as on a number of low-cost houses.
Vodder is best known for his simple furniture designs, made from natural materials such as rio rosewood and teak. His pieces are often inspired by natural forms, and sometimes accented with bright colors. Throughout his career, Vodder has worked with many famous brands, designing cabinets, tables, seats and much more. He also worked for Fritz Hansen, France.
