THE MARKET HOP Celebrating 90 Years of Peerless Design in one Initiate Evening PORRO 90 Year Exhibition – The Cabinet of Curiosities Patricia Urquiola nominated Art Director of CassinaAs a rising figure of the modernist movement, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was selected to design the German Pavilion for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. Through masterful proportioning and planning, Mies created a rhythmic and entirely unprecedented space, which elevated industrial-age materials to a level of grace never before achieved. Inside, Mies included chairs and stools conceived as a resting place for the King and Queen of Spain. Determined to create a chair worthy of royalty, Mies is thought to have based the designs, with their signature crisscross frames, on the campaign chairs of Ancient Rome. Mies: “I feel that it must be possible to harmonize the old and new in our civilization.”
Although the Barcelona Pavilion only stood for seven months, it is recognized as a defining achievement of modern architecture, as are the accompanying Barcelona Chairs (although the King and Queen reportedly never sat in them). Mies, a close friend and mentor to Florence Knoll during her time at the Illinois Institute of Technology, formally granted Knoll the production rights to the Barcelona Chair and Stool in 1953. The designs immediately became a signature of the Knoll brand and have been built to Mies van der Rohe’s exacting standards ever since.The Knoll Barcelona chair is the ubiquitous classic that will never age.

Harry Bertoia’s delicately industrial Side Chair is among the most recognized achievements of mid-century modern design. Like Saarinen and Mies, Bertoia found sublime grace in an industrial material, elevating it beyond its normal utility into a work of art.
The graceful Diamond Chair is an astounding study in space design, form and function by one of the master sculptors – Harry Bertoia, in 1952. Warmed through color and texture, the Florence Knoll Lounge Collection is a scaled-down translation of the rhythm and proportions of mid-century modern architecture. Jehs and Laub Lounge The Jehs+Laub Lounge Chair is inspired by the structure and geometry of earlier Knoll designs, is the latest in a long and distinguished line of Knoll lounge furniture. The sweeping form is balanced by an inviting interior inspired by traditional quilting. Eero Saarinen designed the groundbreaking Womb Chair at Florence Knoll’s request for “a chair that was like a basket full of pillows, something I could really curl up in.” AAL – About a Lounge Chair has a compact body that offers a warm embrace and almost draws you into a conversation with this sensitive creature. About a Lounge Chair has a strong signature expression and a keen sense of proportions with its late-modern references and contemporary textural qualities.
About a Lounge Chair appears as a sculpture in space with its beautiful back, where the stitching helps define a graphic line that appears subtle or striking, depending on your choice of upholstery. AAC – About a Chair is an intuitive take on the concept of a chair. The organic posture provides good lumbar support, and the open shell invites you to take a seat. About a Chair comes in a dyed plastic version as well as a version with either frontal or full upholstery in hard-wearing furniture fabrics combined with round legs in soap-finished or lacquered oak or ash wood stained black. The many possible combinations of frame, shell and colours make About a Chair an ultra-flexible and versatile chair that celebrates individuality. Uchiwa is a capacious armchair taking its soft and open shape from the traditional Japanese hand fan. Generous and inviting, Uchiwa’s hard plastic shell has surprisingly soft down padding inside. New and familiar at once, the armchair comes in two upholstered versions: in soft down for a more domestic environment and in moulded foam for a more demanding contract context.
The dramatic seat shell can be exposed or upholstered, and the legs come in natural or stained oak.Iconic Interiors Ltd reviewsReview Iconic Interiors Ltd now.
