Chairs, Chair Design and Chair Designers
And another Rietveld interpretation. This time a funny one by Julien Berthier
Red and Blue Chair†by Gerrit Rietveld (1918) drawn with my left hand, and built by scrupulously following the resulting drawing.
The prototype was then given to a carpenter who produced a series of five identical copies.

I looove beautiful ladies. They are frequently used to advertise chairs. Not for nothing have I coined a category here on the blog Chairchez La Femme thereby abusing the French “chercher” which means “to seek”, to express “look for the lady”, “look at the lady” or even maybe “watch out for the lady” …rather than the chair;-)
Britney Spear (ab)uses an Emeco Navy chair extensively in a recent video clip of her song Stronger. What better promotion can a chair manufacturer whish?
Thank you Jan
This photo says it all: This l’ll sister has a flexible seating indeed.
Chubby Brothers’s Sister (2008)
The Chubby family is getting ridiculous, but I did built them in the same time with the Chubby Brother dining table, and I just never put the 5th one together till 2009. She is technically the youngest sister.
