Coffee Table by Dom Hans van der Laan & Jan de Jong, Netherlands, 1960s

$ 6,000
  • Description
    Rare and historically significant coffee table, designed by the legendary Dom Hans van der Laan in 1955 for the Sint-Johannes Geboortekerk in Nieuwkuijk. This piece exemplifies the minimal brutalist style characteristic of the Bossche School, combining impeccable craftsmanship with a natural aesthetic. Executed with a unique "plastic number" ratio of 3:4, this coffee table achieves harmonious proportions and an intrinsic sense of balance. This coffee table, a testament to van der Laan's architectural genius, is not just a functional piece but a significant artifact of Dutch design history, embodying the rationality and functionality that defined his collaborative work in the post-WWII reconstruction era.
