Sven Markelius 'Orchestra' Chairs Black & White
By Sven Markelius
Located in Antwerp, BE
Scandinavian modern, lacquered birch, stackable 'orchestra' chairs, Sven Markelius, Sweden, 1930s.
These modernist chairs were especially designed for the Helsingborg Concert Hall.
Clean and simple lines make these very early modernist chairs a great and timeless design.
These chairs would fit well in a modern day minimalist and zen interior, possibly combined with some brutalist and rustic elements.
The Helsingborg Concert Hall was of great importance as the first functionalist monumental building in Sweden. It was designed by Sven Markelius and was finished in 1932.
In 1925 a competition was launched and Markelius was invited. He had earlier, in 1918, come up with a proposal for a Concert Hall. Markelius came in third place in this competition after Lars Israel Wahlman...
