Find Me The Original Barcelona Chair designed by Mies Van Der Rohe. The Barcelona chair was exclusively designed for the German Pavilion, that country's entry for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, which was hosted by Barcelona, Spain. The design resulted from collaboration between the famous Bauhaus architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and his longtime partner and companion, architect and designer Lilly Reich.

  • I'ts make me relax...and sleep everytime.I'm fogot my bed. (- . -)*

  • These chairs are so girly. I like many wood chairs like those design by David Nakashima.

  • @eschersky Good point but nevertheless Mies never intended the Barcelona Chair to be mass produced. He always carried an artisian mastercraft spirit one piece at the time and sincerely looked down on mass produced objects.

  • @uzapuca Oh, I'm sorry, I realize that I wasn't clear. I meant that the process required for producing this chair makes it expensive. I think that there exist a bit easier ways of producing this quality of design and which would even lower the costs. Otherwise, the chair is well proportioned in many ways and is comfortable, which is quite important as well.

  • @eschersky inefficient how?

  • Very interesting chair, but how inefficient product.

  • EXCELLENT / THANK YOU ... !

  • es una silla muy sofisticada , aunque no tan com oda como quisiera

  • Yes what a great chair - a classic. I bought a fantastic replica from a company in the UK called Siedasi

  • The Irony is Mies Van Der Rohe´s original chairs were not chromed. I know you say it was a knew way to treat the chair but the treatment is not true to the original. It allows a cheaper quality steel to be used and chroming it stops it rusting
