About the Item
Chairs; dining chairs; Bossche School; Dom Hans van der Laan; Jan de Jong; The Netherlands; Dutch Design; 1960s; Minimal Brutalist Style;
Six remarkable dining chairs in minimal brutalist style designed by the Dutch Benedictine monk & architect Dom Hans van der Laan in the Netherlands in the 1960s. Made out of pinewood and features copper nails, giving this piece a natural and rustic feel. The chairs are painted grey, including the nails. Functionality and rationality were key for Dom Hans, which is noticeable in this design. This item is a beautiful piece of Dutch design history. Although Dom van der Laan left a small body of work behind, his legacy is highly regarded in the world of architecture. The St. Benedictusberg Abbey in Vaals and its interior quickly became his masterpiece at the age of 53. Dom Hans van der Laan was a leading figure in the Bossche School. His theories on numerical ratios in architecture and furniture were very influential.
During the reconstruction period after WWII the Dutch architect Jan de Jong and Dom Hans van der Laan collaborated on several architectural projects including interior furniture. They created an outstanding body of work defining the style of the Bossche School. Jan de Jong was able to translate many of Dom van der Laan’s idealized concepts and ideas into pioneering buildings and spaces. They worked in such close collaboration however it’s quite difficult to distinguish the individual level of input into the furniture they designed.
These minimalistic chairs, priced per piece, would make a perfect match with the Dom Hans van der Laan bench, available in another listing.
