About Peter Danko Designs
Peter Danko is an award-winning designer, inventor, and master craftsman. Danko’s designs envisions a future that values both work and materials as precious. That even the most humble or unusual materials can be transformed into a compelling design by vision, skill, and craftsmanship. The idea is to transition the adage “less is more” from simply being an esthetic goal to an esthetic and resource goal. The result is to minimize resources to the benefit of future generations and leave the world a place of greater beauty.
Danko chairs, benches, tables, and kitchens can be seen worldwide in universities, libraries, restaurants, museums, and homes. They are clean, sleek, and memorable
Sustainable by Design
Protecting our resources and using environmentally friendly glues and finishes is an important part of Eco Modern design. In addition, Danko incorporates several key points into our design mission:
-
Plybent furniture is strong, sturdy, and stands the test of time. Each chair is tested to meet BIFMA Standards and comes with a 5 year warranty.
-
Innovative design leads to minimum waste, yielding up to 9 bentwood chairs from a single log as opposed to just one single solid hardwood chair from that same log.
-
Reducing waste is always a goal at Danko. Our designs use upcycled materials, saving thousands of yards of automotive industry seat belts from landfills every year.
-
Hollow Core (HC) polypropylene panels are used in several of our designs. This plastic is #5 on the recycle chart. It is lightweight, very strong, uses minimal resources, and the infrastructure to recycle is already in place. As a bonus, it glows etherally when lit with low-energy LED lights, lending the warmth of nature to the indoors.

MADE IN THE USA. All of our products are designed, tested, and built in York, Pennsylvania. Peter's personal workshop produces our signature bentwood pieces and in partnership with our local factory that employs hundreds of Americans we create a quality product to stand the test of time.
