One of the first designers to bring the traditional Scandinavian values of function and craftmanship to the US. He was part of a new vanguard that helped establish post-war America`s leadership role in modern furniture design and manufacturing. His chairs are in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Yale Museum of Art & Design, and many others. In 1996 Risom was knighted in Denmark. In 1997 Knoll reissued a collection of Risom-designed chairs, stools and tables that remain today a successful part of the Knoll line.
