Modernist De Stijl Inspired Lounge Chairs, Netherlands, 1960s
-
Description
Vibrant chairs that showcase the quintessential Bauhaus aesthetic, emphasising primary colors and geometric forms. The red backrests and seats, juxtaposed with blue seating surfaces and yellow structural elements, create a striking visual contrast. Each chair's angular design reflects the movement's focus on functional, minimalist, and industrial design principles. The use of bold, primary colors is reminiscent of the De Stijl art movement, which influenced many Bauhaus designers. The simplicity and starkness of these chairs highlight the movement's break from ornate styles, embracing modernism's clean lines and practicality. Despite their wear, these chairs remain iconic representations of early 20th-century avant-garde design, illustrating the enduring legacy of the Bauhaus school. Priced per piece.
