The treatment of Panton{\textquoteright}s work reflects a desire not only to trace his wide-ranging output, with its distinctive historical and work-characteristic features but also to arrive at a structural understanding of problems in his work to enable a contemporary and relevant interpretation, in part by involving aspects such as Panton{\textquoteright}s creativity. We regard this book as a contribution to the continuous self-critical reflection that has been characteristic of practitioners and theorists of modern design since the late 1800s, and which plays an important role today in so-called design thinking. To paraphrase the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze, this book essentially aims at “creating a problem” that renders Panton relevant to contemporary design. The basis of this problem is design after the Second World War. A central point in this book is that Panton{\textquoteright}s work over time is engaged in close dialogue with crucial cultural and philosophical insights in the years following the Second World War, and also that he was a “trailblazer”, not only within the field of professional design but also in a broader historical sense. It seems clear to us that his work – under the conditions for creative expression that characterised the time from the 1950s to the 1990s – continues to offer relevant inspiration for currentday themes within design research as well as for the professional and creative contexts that form the settings for young contemporary designers.",
