Aluminum Chair by Gerrit Rietveld

Rietveld Aluminum Chair _MG_5005

Aluminum Chair by Gerrit Rietveld

I took the photo of the Aluminum Rietveld Chair in the Amsterdam Stedelijk Museum for Modern Art which has a large chair collection. I find the use of aluminum atypical for Rietveld, but he did research all sorts of material for his chairs. Vitra Design Museum has one as well and suggests this chair originally was designed to be made of fiber board…

You can find Belgian designer Peter Donders on Pinterest nowadays and it is interesting to see that he published this new chair he coined “Rietveld Minimal Surface” there rather than on his own site first.

Sezz Chair

In 2009 I stayed at the Hotel Sezz in Paris with my family to celebrate my 60ieth. Sezz was in the process of developing a new hotel in Saint Tropez. Although I noticed their eye for detail and certain fine chairs, little I knew they would go so far as to have Christophe Pillet design a whole new chair for them, produced by Emeco…A French designer and a French hotel and a US based manufacturer is a surprise;-)
