Thonet x Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999)</p> <p>> V&A Collections</p> <blockquote> <p><span>Perriand designed this tubular-steel chair before she met the architect Le Corbusier and joined his studio, in November 1927. Its first use was in the apartment that she designed for herself and her English husband Percy Scholefield, adapting a top-floor photography studio on the place Saint-Sulpice in Paris. Similar chairs had been designed by friends of hers (Rene Herbst, Djo-Bourgeois and Louis Sognot) in Paris, under the influence of designs by Marcel Breuer and Mart Stam, illustrated in design magazines in 1926-7.</span></p> </blockquote></blockquote>http://chairblog.tumblr.com/post/50005287233http://chairblog.tumblr.com/post/50005287233Thu, 09 May 2013 12:59:16 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/7e35f4cccd51db77f144203c2b408c0f/tumblr_mk27h3f15k1rpgpe2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://design-is-fine.tumblr.com/post/45984430897/sitzbank-modellreihe-nr-715-c-entwurf-gustav" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">design-is-fine</a>:</p> <blockquote><p><span>Sitzbank (Modellreihe Nr. 715/c), Entwurf Gustav Siegel, Ausführung Jacob & Josef Kohn, Wien, vor 1900; Grassi-Museum für Angewandte Kunst Leipzig </span></p> <blockquote> <p><span>Bäume wachsen gerade in den Himmel – mal mehr, mal weniger. Doch der Tischler Thonet wollte Kunst statt Natur, rund geschwungenes Holz, ohne zu schnitzen. Sanft im Wasserdampf gebogen, gelang ihm die Möbelrevolution: Das Patent von 1842 zum Holzverbiegen wird ihn zu völlig neuen Formen inspirieren – leicht und haltbar, mit sehr geringem Materialaufwand. Und nicht nur Thonet, den späteren Designer etlicher Ikonen. Fortan erschließt sich der ganzen Möbelindustrie ein völlig neues Formenrepertoire. Die Wiener Brüder Kohn, Thonets schärfste Konkurrenten, bogen Holz bald sogar noch deutlich schneller: Minutenwerk war nun, was vorher mehr als eine Stunde brauchte, und es trieb die Möbelpro­duktion effizient voran. Doch erst zur Weltausstellung 1900 setzten die Ge­brüder auch auf Gestaltung wie schon jahrzehntelang auf Masse. So wie in Gustav Siegels Sitzbank aus Buche mit ihrem dreidimensionalen Bugholz für Rückenlehne und die vorderen Beine: Die Weltausstellung brachte einen Grand Prix für die Bank und den Entwerfer Siegel, den die Brüder Kohn alsbald zu ihrem Chef­designer erkoren. Gebogen und zugleich im rechten Winkel, ganz ohne Zierwerk und geprägt vom Jugendstil, weist die Sitzbank weit hinaus in Richtung Bauhaus und Werkbund. </span></p> </blockquote></blockquote>http://chairblog.tumblr.com/post/50005267030http://chairblog.tumblr.com/post/50005267030Thu, 09 May 2013 12:58:39 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/75c6034b96a9e0a323eef2eaaefdc993/tumblr_mk8a36dEJS1rpgpe2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://design-is-fine.tumblr.com/post/46271662578/august-thonet-reclining-couch-model-no-2-chaise" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">design-is-fine</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>August Thonet, reclining couch, model no. 2 chaise longue, 1888.
