'BANGA' Modular Space Age Architecture, Carlo Zappa Bungalow Int, 1971, Italy
Located in bergen op zoom, NL
Many Avant Garde architects and designers of the 1960s / 70s became fascinated with the idea of minimal living, a secluded retreat, escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and relaxation in the middle of nature. Thanks to new pliable materials, plastics, with their free and easy formability, lightness and especially their novelty, they developed micro bungalows and houses as either secondary vacation homes or for use in gardens. Italian developer Carlo Zappa undertook the challenge of designing and producing such a micro bungalow which eventually became commonly known as 'BANGA' .The first models rolled off the production line in 1971 and went through three production phases before production eventually ceased in 1985. Carlo Zappa not only developed the initial project, but personally executed the moulds, construction solutions, all the services detailing ie electrical, plumbing and metal hardware. Zappa's micro bungalow featured a total of 8.1 square meters of floor space. It offered space for up to three people thanks to a bunk bed, which could be folded down as a sofa during the day. A small bathroom with wash basin, shower / toilet, a small kitchen unit with sink and water heater...

Modern to Post Modern Henry Massonnet Red Plastic Stacking Chairs Set of 4
Located in Topeka, KS
Gorgeous modern to post-modern set of four red plastic stacking chairs by Henry Massonnet. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. There are scuffs to the plastic from use but no cracks or breaks that we have detected. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1970’s The only thing cooler than a bright red chair is…. FOUR bright red chairs!!! And these aren’t just ANY red chairs… This is a modern to post-modern set of 4 red plastic stacking chairs by French designer Henry Massonnet! The signature is on the lower back of each seat, and they are AWESOME!!! These chairs are a fabulous demonstration of his work as they represent a space age influenced design which he engineered toward industrial efficiency. These bright red beauties are going to look great out on your patio, in your sunroom, out by the pool, or on your deck BUT, they would be equally as wonderful as extra seating in your living or dining area. They would be fabulous used as chairs around your game table or accent chairs in any room, of any style. And they conveniently stack! So, it’s simple and space conserving if you want to store them away when your guests leave. Henry Massonnet, born January 6, 1922, in Oyonnax, France, was a famous French designer. He is particularly known for being the designer of the "Tam Tam" stool in 1981. He was Mayor of Mornay, and he was also a great collector of art. In 1948, he took over the family business called “Stamp” and he designed a new plastic molding process. He was a French engineer and entrepreneur and his company had about 340 employees. He designed the “Fauteuil 300...

Antique Garden Furniture and Architectural Elements

Choosing the right antique or vintage building and garden elements can prove pivotal when you’re working to beautify any room in your home or just put the finishing touches on a garden or other outdoor area.

It takes time and effort to improve your outdoor space or merely to bring an air of tranquility to an indoor area set aside for private relaxation or gathering with friends. The good news is that 1stDibs can help.

To introduce a sense of timelessness to a back patio or interior common area, choose cast-stone statues or sculptural busts for a dose of drama or select ornate architectural elements such as corbels, plaques or panels made of marble or iron. Elsewhere, find a focal point in your living room and create a “feature wall” by bringing pops of color into a corner with handmade antique ceramic tiles.

It helps when design changes like these have a practical upside too.

Victorian cast-iron stair treads hearken back to a time when adding decorative details to your property was a priority. While lending an attractive appearance to an exterior staircase, these safeguards render the steps slip-resistant for those coming and going. And as one good stylistic choice usually leads to another, pairing your sophisticated treads with a coupling of 19th-century hand-forged andirons would be a thoughtful, durable touch for any courtyard or comfortable lounge space, be they intended for an indoor fireplace or a patio firepit.

Where the garden is concerned, any sophisticated garden ornaments you select should work with nature, not against it. Wrought-iron garden gates will simply refuse to be relegated to the background. Instead, they’ll draw attention to your painstakingly sculpted hedges and colorful flora. When paired with a sparse arrangement of other tasteful additions, such as a stone planter, garden stool or other welcoming pieces of outdoor seating, the effect can be transformative.

On 1stDibs, find a sprawling collection of antique garden furniture and architectural elements that meet every need. Our offerings include everything from sculptural bathroom fixtures to flooring ideas to pedestals and columns designed in a variety of styles and much more.
