Although it’s not possible to purchase the designers originals, since only a very few examples were produced during the period and can only now be found in museums, modern production techniques and technologies allow manufacturers to produce furniture of an even better quality. During the 1920’s the Bauhaus designers had many ideas which never left the drawing board since technology hadn’t developed far enough.
Today, professional manufacturers use foam material and the most up-to-date production technologies. Thanks to these modern advances, you can find the most exclusive and attractive pieces of furniture at livingroom24, and select from a huge range of material finishes, and frame material.
The Barcelona Chair – 1929, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and developed for the German pavilion of the world exhibition in Barcelona in 1929 is the perfect example of this range of choice. The frame is made of cold rolled bar stock steel that is then triple chrome plated. The leathers are full grain aniline hides, and the squares are individually cut and sewn. When Mies set about designing the chair for the Pavilion, he commented at the time that this was "an important chair, it has to be monumental”. Such principals live on at livingroom24 with a huge choice of leather finishes ranging from biscuit to red chilli, ensuring the chair is a masterful presence in any residence or home office.
