Dakota Jackson (born August 24, 1949) is an American furniture designer known for his eponymous furniture brand, Dakota Jackson, Inc., his early avant-garde works involving moving parts or hidden compartments, and his collaborations with the Steinway & Sons piano company.

Jackson helped establish the art furniture movement in the 1970s SoHo, later becoming a celebrity designer in the 1980s. His background in stage magic helped him get his first commissions and is often cited as the source of his point of view.

Today, Dakota Jackson’s luxury chairs, sofas, tables, and other pieces are known for their stylish and expressive forms, so it’s not surprising that the American contemporary furniture designer has spent a lifetime immersed in the arts. less
