Myung Sun Kang, Korea, 2013
"From the Glitter" lounge chair in mother of pearl and Korean lacquer on wood. Designed and made by Myung Sun Kang, Korea, 2013. Edition 2 of 8 + 2 APs.
...
Though her materials reference the 2000-year old tradition of Korean mother-of-pearl lacquerware, there is nothing ancient about the energetically asymmetrical form of this glimmering lounge chair. -

...
Bae Se Hwa is inspired by the Korean tradition of beauty as the harmony of nature, seeking to convey a sense of calmness and peace through his designs. His furniture resembles the Korean landscape and mountains through their organic shapes and curved wood, reinforcing his desire to create a conversation between man and nature, inside and outside. -

Marcel Breuer
“Short Chair.” 1936-39.
...
Produced by Isokon Furniture Company, London
Molded birch plywood seat manufactured by Venesta Plywood Company, Tallinn, Estonia.
Laminated frame recycled from various plywood packing crates.
After Marcel Breuer fled Nazi Germany, he settled in London, where he designed a seminal series of plywood furniture for Isokon, the firm founded by Jack Pritchard. Influenced heavily by Aalto, the Short Chair featured a bent ply seat manufactured by the firm Venesta in Estonia, which was shipped to London and united with its wooden arms assembled from recycled packing crates and other scraps.
The Short Chair is much rarer than the more iconic Long Chair, which we feature in our “Furniture by Architects” online exhibition. Apart from its rarity, I personally believe it to be a more successful design in terms of its proportions and aesthetic harmony. For a breakdown of the chair’s history and construction, here is a wonderful video interview with legendary curator Christopher Wilk of the Victoria & Albert Museum on the Short Chair in their collection.

Greta Magnusson Grossman, USA, 1949
This chaise longue had a short production run and was one of the last fully upholstered pieces that Grossman designed, similar to another chaise with wrought iron feet she created around the same time. There are a few photographs of this version, produced by Sherman Bertram. Its scale is unusual in comparison to other chaise longues because it is wide and short, almost like a love seat. This piece can be seen in a sketch Grossman created for the residence of Frank Sinatra, alongside the floor lamp also on this show. The present example is upholstered with “Max” fabric designed and handwoven by rruka.

Sergio Rodrigues, Brazil, 1961
Sergio Rodrigues came up with the design for the Sheriff Chair after his friend, photographer Otto Stupakoff, asked for a couch where he could rest and feel “like a sultan.” The seat’s sturdiness opposes the toothpick feet that characterized design at that point, while the relaxing posture anticipates the casual attitudes of the 1960s. In 1961, Rodrigues submitted the design with small modifications to the international furniture competition of Cantu, Italy, under the name of Sheriff, and won first prize in the wood category. The jury considered the Sheriff to be “the only model with current characteristics, despite the conventional treatment of the frame, uninfluenced by fads and absolutely representative of its region of origin.” This example was specially handmade circa 1999 for the cover of the monograph “Sergio Rodrigues,” edited by Soraia Cals (2000).

Ilmari Tapiovaara
“Colette Chair.” 1954.
...
Produced by Asko, Ltd., Finland.
Solid wood, webbing
One of the great treasures of R & Company’s collection is the furniture acquired from the estate of “Finland’s Second Designer” Ilmari Tapiovaara (Aalto being the first, of course), which formed the basis of our gallery’s 2001 exhibition Ilmari Tapiovaara: Interior Architect. The designer’s own example of the “Colette” chair has been buried deep in our warehouse for nearly two decades. It is a classic example of midcentury modern low-cost “Good Design.” Two years ago, when we last made Tapiovaara’s “Domus” lounge chair from his estate available, it was acquired by LACMA for their upcoming exhibition “Scandinavian Design and the United States.”

Charles and Ray Eames
...
LCM (Lounge Chair Metal). Designed 1946
Manufactured by Herman Miller, Zeeland, Michigan
Molded ash plywood with original black aniline dye finish and original blue leather upholstery, chrome-plated steel, rubber shock mounts
From the 1920’s to the 1940’s, the pioneers of modern chair design – Aalto, Breuer, Eames - produced seats in three distinct mediums. Tubular Steel. Bent Plywood. And…the most difficult of all, the marriage of steel and plywood. I firmly believe that the most successful realization of the third category is the LCM and DCM designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1946. The separation of the molded plywood back and seat simplified production and heightened the design’s sculptural qualities by emphasizing the space surrounding the actual form. The rubber shock mounts were the secret sauce of all Eames chair designs, cushioning the impact of sitting on plywood on top of the frame. In the end, the LCM is a far more compelling chair than the LCW, in which the seat, back and legs were plywood.
Eames collectors love early and quirky examples of the most famous designs, and the present LCM certainly fits the bill. We acquired a pair of these chairs because it is the first time we have ever seen original blue leather seats and backs, contrasted with black aniline dye finish to the wood on the underside. The manufacturer and retailer labels date these examples to approximately 1952.

Ron Arad
“Rover” Chair. Designed 1981
...
Manufactured by One-Off Ltd, London, 1981-89.
Tubular steel, leather Rover seat, cast-iron Klee Klamp joints
Is it sacrilegious for me to say that the Rover chair is my favorite Ron Arad chair? Is it any different than preferring the raw debut album of a rock band over its later refined and professional recordings?
There’s such a glorious punk spirit to the Rover, each seat unique in its wear and recycled from junk yards. There are probably more Rover chairs in the permanent collections of museums than any other Arad design. It is a masterpiece of two manufactured objects *not* designed by Arad, the automobile seat and the Klee Klamp, united with some lengths of metal pipe. Soundtrack: Gang of Four, “Entertainment!” (1979).

Sol Bloom
Lounge Chair. Ca. 1952
...
Manufactured by New Dimensions Furniture, USA
Black woven steel mesh.
One of the research bibles for those of us who began their careers in the 1990’s as dealers and auction specialists is Cara Greenberg’s Midcentury Modern, first published in 1984. It was loaded with famous and rare designs by Eames, Noguchi, Mollino and many others, but also chock full of obscure American pieces from the 1950’s “Good Design” era as promoted by MoMA and other institutions. It is where I first saw the wire-mesh designs of Sol Bloom, whose “Catch-All” was included in MoMA’s November 1951 Good Design exhibition. The present lounge chair has been in the gallery’s collection since 2005 and is the first time we have made it available for purchase.

Sergio Rodrigues, Brazil, 1962
"Vronka" lounge chair with jacaranda frame and upholstered leather seat and headrest. Designed by Sérgio Rodrigues, Brazil, 1962.
...
Shortly after starting the architecture program at the University of Brazil (now the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro), Sergio Rodrigues found a passion for interior design. After graduating, he began designing his own furniture, and by the 1960s, had a thriving business. The Vronka armchair was designed in 1962 for his Meia Pataca line, which Rodrigues created aiming for a broader client base. While admirable, his architecture remains overshadowed by his prolific furniture design career. -
Frank Gehry, USA, 1987
"Grandpa Beaver" armchair in corrugated cardboard from the Chiat-Day Building, Santa Monica. Produced by New City Editions, Venice, ca. 1987-91.
...
Sometimes architects decorate their buildings with chairs they have previously designed, independent of any architectural commission. Such is the case with the present “Grandpa Beaver” chair, which was originally designed by Gehry in 1986 for Vitra as part of his second line of cardboard furniture, known as the “Experimental Edges.” Later, Gehry integrated furniture from the series into the 1990s interior of the Chiat/Day Building in Santa Monica, California (also known as the Binoculars Building because of the Oldenberg/van Bruggen façade sculpture), and the present example was originally placed in the executive offices. -
Jose Zanine Caldas, Brazil, 1963-7
From the 1960s onwards, Jose Zanine Caldas incorporated scraps from deforestation to create what he called “Protest Furniture.” For his iconic masterwork, the “Namoradeira,” or “Tete-a-Tete,” Zanine uses a large section of a felled tree to translate the nineteenth-century French form into the twentieth-century Brazilian design lexicon. Though Zanine carved the “dating chair” from a massive log, the rounded base allows the users to rock back and forth, reinforcing the light, social function of the piece.

Sergio Rodrigues, Brazil, 1956
"Oscar Niemeyer" chair in imbuia wood with cane seat and back. Designed by Sergio Rodrigues, Brazil, circa 1956.
...
Rodrigues was connected to other avant-garde designers and architects of Brazil and was even involved in furnishing some of the buildings of Brasília (founded in 1960). The Oscar chair was designed in honor of the new capital's architect, fellow carioca Oscar Niemeyer. Its lines echo the iconic columns of the Alvorada Palace, the official residence of the President of Brazil. -

Alvar Aalto
Chair, model no. 21. Designed 1932.
...
Manufactured by Artek, Finland and retailed by New Furniture, Inc/Artek-Pascoe, ca. 1938-47.
Molded laminated birch and birch plywood
This is a rare example of the model to have been made for the American market in the 1930s, having previously been in the collection of the Hugh Stubbins House, Lexington, MA. It dates to the early years of distribution in the USA, when Laurance Rockefeller set up a firm to handle the American market in conjunction with the 1938 Aalto exhibition at MoMA. Most of the early American owners of this model seem to have been architects who were affiliated with either MoMA or Harvard/MIT. Hugh Stubbins, who studied with Walter Gropius and succeeded him as department chair at Harvard, almost certainly knew Aalto in the 1940s. I prefer this model over its Paimio Sanitorium prototype, which was an awkward fusion of bent ply and tubular steel. -

Greta Magnusson Grossman, USA, 1947
In 1948, Greta Magnusson Grossman stated that to create furniture that could blend all periods. Her solution was not to mix different styles but to develop a unique look. Such is the case with this very rare armchair that Grossman designed for Barker Brothers in 1947, the year they opened Modern Shop. The armchair does combine the typical Scandinavian arm “swoop” with the ease of the California coast, but it is conceived as a new and innovative design. The piece was part of the Multi-Unit Pacific Line, created by Grossman for Barker in Ash wood with a “Palomino” stain finish, which gives the wood a golden sheen.

Long Chair. Manufactured by Isokon Furniture Company, London, 1935–1939. Plywood.

After Breuer fled Nazi Germany, he settled in London, where he designed a seminal series of plywood furniture for Isokon, the firm founded by Jack Pritchard. Influenced heavily by Aalto, the Long Chair featured a bent ply seat manufactured by the firm Venesta in Estonia, which was shipped to London and united with its wooden arms assembled from recycled packing crates and other scraps. The present one, like many, was originally upholstered by Isokon, but probably lost its tacked cushion when the collecting market for the chair started to develop in the 1980s. It was the most successful design for Isokon, and today more than a dozen examples are in museums. -
