Martin Eisler and Carlo Hauner Costela Armchairs
About the Item
Beautiful and iconic pair of two Costela Armchairs by legendary Brazilian designers Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler for Forma, Brazil. Excellent condition, teak wood. The name ‘Costela’ which translates as rib, is apparent in the design with its eight dark stained wooden slats that resemble a rib structure. The slats are rhythmically positioned and curve upwards on the sides.
Martin Eisler (Vienna, Austria, 1913 - São Paulo, Brazil, 1977) was an architect and furniture designer. He was part of a group of European architects and designers who left Europe during the chaos of the Second World War and went to live and work in Brazil. Eisler stood out amongst this group of creatives. His work was at the forefront of modern furniture design in Brazil, which flourished through the 50s and 60s. Eisler's work in partnership with Carlo Hauner (1927-1996) was of particular significance

- Swag Leg Chair 1958 by George Nelson for Herman MillerBy George NelsonLocated in London, GBThe "swag leg chair" by George Nelson dates back to 1958 - but would still be a perfect fit in any science fiction movie today. the innovative design resulted from nelson's demands for the development of his swag leg group, which includes chairs, a secretary and various tables. the elegantly curved legs were to be made of steel and processed by machine. and although the chair naturally looks extremely casual and cool, this has nothing to do with the youthful spirit of the 21st century: "swag" here means the process of "swaging", in english "pressing" (metal pressing is still a widespread method of forming). The frame is actually a combination of the classic "four-legged friend" with the idea of a central axis. or, to put it more poetically by a contemporary: "like four tree roots growing out of the ground and uniting to form a strong trunk...Category
