The iconic Barcelona Chair is a classic piece of furniture that is admired by design-lovers all over the world. Originally created by Mies Van Der Rohe in 1929, the Barcelona Chair is one of the most recognisable modernist designs still in production today.
History of the Barcelona Chair
Mies van der Rohe was an architect and designer at the Bauhaus school in Germany when he designed the Barcelona chair for the International Exposition of 1929. The chair took its name from the location where the exhibition was hosted that year, and was the centrepiece of the German Pavillion, which van der Rohe also designed.
