Modern Charlotte loves the Barcelona Chair
OK- I admit it! I am a chair addict. One of my all time, must have chairs is the Barcelona Chair. Designed in 1929 by Mies Van der Rohe for the International Exposition of 1929 which was held in Barcelona, Spain. (hence the name)
Designers and architects of the Bauhaus Movement were intent on producing great design for the " common man" – the Barcelona Chair was the exception! It was designed for Spanish Royaly.
In 1953, Mies Van der Rohe ceded his patent rights to Knoll, which renewed interest in the chair. Knoll still holds the patent rights though there are numerous knock-offs on the market.
