Bauhaus Chairs

BAUHAUS STYLE

The Bauhaus was a progressive German art and design school founded by the architect Walter Gropius that operated from 1919 to 1933. Authentic Bauhaus furnituresofas, dining chairs, tables and more — and the school’s followers married industrial and natural materials in simple, geometric forms. The goal of the Bauhaus was to erase the distinction between art and craft while embracing the use of new technologies and materials.

ORIGINS OF BAUHAUS FURNITURE DESIGN

CHARACTERISTICS OF BAUHAUS FURNITURE DESIGN

  • Emphasis on craft
  • Simplicity, order, clarity and a prioritization of functionalism
  • Incorporation of geometric shapes
  • Minimalist and refined, little to no ornamentation
  • Use of industrial materials such as tubular chrome, steel and plastic as well as leather, cane and molded plywood in furniture and other products

AUTHENTIC BAUHAUS FURNITURE ON 1STDIBS

The name Bauhaus is derived from the German verb bauen, “to build.” Under the school’s innovative curriculum, students were taught the fine arts, such as painting and sculpture, as well as practical skills like carpentry and metalworking. 

The school moved from Weimar in 1925 to the city of Dessau, where it enjoyed its heyday under Gropius, then Hannes Meyer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The period from 1932 to 1933 when it operated in Berlin under Mies was its final chapter. Despite its brief existence, the Bauhaus has had an enduring impact on art and design in the United States and elsewhere, and is regarded by many as the 20th century’s chief crucible of modernism

The faculty roster at the Bauhaus reads like a who’s who of modernist creative genius — it included such artists as Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky and László Moholy-Nagy along with architects and designers like Mies and Marcel Breuer, who became known for his muscular brutalist-style concrete buildings in the postwar years. In 1925, while he was head of the Bauhaus carpentry workshop, Breuer gave form to his signature innovation: the use of lightweight tubular-steel frames for chairs, side tables and sofas — a technique soon adopted by Mies and others. Breuer’s Cesca chair was the first-ever tubular steel frame chair with a caned seat to be mass produced, while the inspiration for his legendary Wassily chair, a timeless design and part of the collection crafted to furnish the Dessau school, was the bike he rode around campus.

Bauhaus design style reflects the tenets by which these creators worked: simplicity, clarity and function. They disdained superfluous ornament in favor of precise construction. Seating pieces such as side chairs, armchairs or club chairs for example, were made with tubular metal or molded plywood frames, and upholstery was made from leather or cane. Above all, designs in the Bauhaus style offer aesthetic flexibility. They can be the elements of a wholly spare, minimalist space, the quiet foundation of an environment in which color and pattern come from one’s own collection of art and artifacts.

Today, from textiles to typefaces, architecture, furniture and decorative objects for the home, Bauhaus creations continue to have an outsize influence on modern design.

Rare Set of 8 Mies van der Rohe for Knoll MR10 and MR20 Chairs
Located in Phoenix, AZ
Rare Set of 8 Mies van der Rohe for Knoll MR10 and MR20 Chairs This exceptional set of eight chairs by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for Knoll represents the epitome of modernist design. Comprising six MR10 and twor MR20 chairs, this collection showcases Mies' commitment to simplicity, functionality, and elegance in both form and material. Style & Usage in Interior Design These chairs belong to the Bauhaus and International Style, characterized by clean lines, minimal ornamentation, and an emphasis on the use of modern materials. The MR10 chairs are armless, offering a sleek and unobtrusive silhouette perfect for dining or office spaces where a minimalist aesthetic is desired. The MR20 chairs, featuring a distinctive curved armrest, provide additional comfort and a more commanding presence, making them ideal as statement pieces in living rooms, lounges, or reading nooks. In interior design, these chairs are best used in spaces that celebrate the beauty of industrial materials like steel and leather. They complement open-plan layouts, where their airy structure can be fully appreciated, and they pair well with other iconic mid-century modern pieces. Key Differences: MR10 vs. MR20 MR10 Chairs: Armless design, characterized by a continuous steel frame that supports the seat and back. Their simplicity allows them to fit seamlessly into various spaces, from dining rooms to offices. MR20 Chairs: Include curved armrests, adding both aesthetic and functional value. These chairs provide more support and comfort, making them suitable for longer periods of sitting or as standalone accent pieces. Mies van der Rohe: A Brief History Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, born in Germany in 1886, was a pioneering figure in modern architecture and design. He began his career in his family's stone-carving business, later studying architecture and working under the influential architect Peter Behrens. Mies was a leading member of the Bauhaus movement, which emphasized the integration of art, craft, and technology. In 1938, Mies emigrated to the United States, where he became the head of the architecture school at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT). His work in America solidified his reputation as one of the most influential architects of the 20th century. Architectural Legacy Mies van der Rohe's architectural philosophy is encapsulated in his famous dictum, "Less is more." His buildings are renowned for their clarity of form, open spaces, and use of modern materials such as glass and steel. His approach sought to create structures that were both functional and aesthetically pleasing, stripping away unnecessary ornamentation to reveal the essence of the design. Notable Works: The Barcelona Pavilion (1929): A masterwork of modern architecture, showcasing Mies' minimalist approach with its flowing spaces and use of glass, marble, and steel. The Farnsworth House (1951): An iconic example of his philosophy, this glass and steel structure is celebrated for its simplicity and seamless integration with the surrounding landscape. The Seagram Building (1958): Located in New York City, this skyscraper is a landmark of the International Style, known for its clean lines, bronze facade, and innovative use of space.

Vintage Bauhaus Skaala Fabric & Chrome Chair by Yrjö Kukkapuro, 1980s, Set of 4
Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
This set of four Skaala chairs was designed by Yrjö Kukkapuro for the Finnish Avarte manufacture during the 1980s. Due to their modern and minimal look, they will easily find their place in the living room or office. The Skaala chair perfectly reflects Kukkapuro's love for ergonomic furniture. This innovative combination of aesthetics and functionality refers to idea from Bauhaus school. The frame is made of chrome-plated goldish metal. The seat and backrest are upholstered with high-quality gray fabric, and additional armrests are made of birch plywood. Yrjö Kukkapuro is a Finnish furniture designer. He is the important person of Finnish functionalism. He has mainly been working as a freelance designer since the 1950s, and most of the furniture he designed early in his career is still in production. "Does it make sense to design a chair that is not comfortable to sit on?" - this is one of Kukkapuro's favorite sayings, which perfectly reflects the designer's love of ergonomic furniture. His designs aim at a subtle balance between functionality and aesthetics - a perfect example of this is the Karuselli chair by Artek and other iconic designs such as the Saturnus table, the Skaala chair, the Remmi series, and the Ateljee armchair and sofa. In his career, Kukkapuro has received many national and international awards - incl. Lunning Prize in 1966, First Prize at the International Chair Design Competition in Italy in 1972 and the Kaj Franck Design Prize in 1995. His works are permanently present in museums around the world, such as the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, MoMA in New York and Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany. Avarte was established as a continuation of the family company Haimi. In 1980, Haimi employees acquired the company for themselves and changed the company name to Avarte. Haimi was a Finnish furniture manufacturer founded in 1943 that was especially known as the producer of Yrjö Kukkapuro designs. Avarte continued to manufacture furniture until 2013, when the company ha been ceased. In addition to Yrjö Kukkapuro's designs, Avarte also produced furniture designed by Samula Naamanka, Mikko Paakkanen and Simo Heikkilä...
