Every carpenter at that time mastered all the possibilities of woodworking: so did the Nothelfer. They could carpenter, even carve altars and figures, and set them in gold, silver and paint. (churches in Owingen and Hödingen]. Some family members lived and worked and worked in Hedingen or Hödingen,like today the jubilarian Karl Nothelfer (this in 1975). His father, Karl Anton Nothelfer, as the eldest of seven siblings, was able to take over his father's carpentry business in Überlingen. Karl Anton Nothelfer, the eldest of seven siblings, was unable to take over his father's carpentry business in Überlingen. He instead moved to the industrial town of Singen with his young wife Rosalie, née Hanner, from the from Hohenzollern in 1896 and moved to the former Poststraße and founded his own carpenter's workshop. He had a highsense of quality and form and was already a member of the German Werkbund before 1914. Karl Nothelfer and his three siblings grew up in such air. After attending school and the secondary school in Singen, the young Karl learned the carpenter's trade in his father's workshop then moved on to the Badische Landes-Kunstschule in Karlsruhe, where he studied architecture. At that time the well-known furniture professor also worked there Fritz Spannagel, born in Freiburg in 1891, who settled in 1938 at Ittendorf Castle near Meers- burg (died 1957). In 1928, the gifted young architect received a teaching assignment at the at the Karlsruhe School of Art, but followed his teacher Spannagel to Berlin in the same year. Berlin. Here he worked from 1928-1945 as a teacher - appointed professor in 1931 - at the Berlin Tischler-Schule, the later Bauschule für Raumgestaltung. The furniture he created in Berlin became internationally known through many exhibitions and lectures. nationally known and influential. His furniture creations ushered in a new era in German and a new era in German and European furniture design. At the world exhibition in Paris 1937 Prof. Nothelfer was awarded the Golden Medal for his work in the furniture sector. for his work in the furniture sector. A first summary and balance of his work on furniture is given in his standard work 1942 published standard work "Das Sitzmöbel", the first compendium of its kind in the world. world. In 1950 he published his second work "Furniture". Both books and a series of brochures were published by Verlag Otto Maier, Ravensburg. Karl Nothelfer continued to work intensively on the design of seating furniture in the years after 1945. In 1950 he succeeded in the important invention of the two-legged skid-base chair, which has been orthopedically - anatomically tested thousands of times - has become accepted all over the world today. Even the most distinguished American furniture companies such as Miller or Knoll-International use the skid as the main theme for desks and chairs. At the same time, N. had a groundbreaking in the redesign of German school furniture and seating for industry. industry. He succeeded in adapting his furniture forms, which originated in wood and handicraft, to the modern technical modern technical possibilities of the industry. He thus became the great refor- of schoolroom furnishings. The architect Nothelfer thinks about himself, that he made his main contribution in the field of seating furniture, although this was not was not really his profession. After the war, Prof. Nothelfer, like so many others, had to start all over again. He settled settled in his home town of Lake Constance in Hödingen in 1945 as a freelance architect and was and was involved in all areas of construction in the years after the war. As early as 1935, he had given many the example of American prefabricated buildings and recommended serial house and recommended it at a time when no one in Germany was even thinking about mass production. Now he developed he developed several types of mass-produced houses, which were manufactured in Baiersbronn. of which more than 800 houses were built in France alone (types Paris, Provence, Normandie). were built. At that time [1946], as part of the reparations in Strasbourg, there was an exhibition of houses with Swedish, Danish, and French designs. with Swedish, Danish, Finnish, English and German houses, where the French occupation for which 6 different types were sent from the French occupation zone, the Nothelfer's house type was considered the top of this exhibition. Karl Nothelfer was also involved in the development of chipboard. In 1946, together with others in Munich, he founded the first magazine "Bauen und Wohnen" ("Building and Living") after the war and remained its co-editor for many years. co-editor of this magazine for many years. By presenting his own work, he has here interpreted what the essence of the magazine wanted to be: Building, in order to live in it, in order to live as a human being and humanly in the built. Karl Nothelfer planned his houses furniture ground plan, from the need for living. In 1948 he was appointed honorary senator of the State Building school in Holzminden. Karl Nothelfer did not build much in Singen.

Antique, New and Vintage Wingback Chairs

They may not offer structural support, but the wings on antique and vintage wingback chairs certainly do have a purpose or did, when the design was first conceived in England in the 1600s.

Back then, the armchair protrusions were meant to protect the sitter from drafts and from the strong heat radiating from the large fireplaces that were popular at the time. This explains why the wingback is so strongly associated with cozying up by the fireplace.

Although the functional aspect of a wingback may be obsolete in the 21st century, the chairs have maintained their popularity over the years and have seen waves of revivals, from mid-century modern spinoffs to playful contemporary adaptations (like the Bear chair by Pierre Yovanovitch, wherein the place of wings are furry ears — a cheeky send-up of Hans Wegner’s iconic mid-century Papa Bear chair).
