Welle 5 by Verner Panton

The Welle 5 by Verner Panton is a dynamic and sculptural seating piece that continues the designer’s iconic exploration of form, comfort, and unconventional design. As part of the Welle series from 1969, Welle 5 features a bold, undulating profile with interlocking wave-like shapes that create multiple seating and lounging surfaces in a single, unified form. Its playful geometry invites users to sit, sprawl, or recline freely, challenging traditional ideas of how furniture should be used.

Made entirely from supportive foam and wrapped in vibrant upholstery, Welle 5 offers a soft yet structured experience with no hard edges. Its sculptural presence makes it ideal for creative environments, lounges, or any modern space that values artistic expression and functionality. True to Verner Panton’s design ethos, Welle 5 transforms the act of sitting into a visual and tactile experience—bold, joyful, and endlessly inventive.
