Club chair B3 (Wassily Chair)

Name:Club chair B3 (Wassily Chair)

Designer: Marcel Breuer(Hungary)

Release Year: 1927

The product is the first chair made of steel pipe, considered as one of the most important furniture of the 20th century. Inspired by the bicycle frame, designer Breuer sketches out a cube-like steel frame, and seats and backrests are inserted into the cube at an angle. The backrest and armrest part of the chair are simple cotton canvas between the metal frames. The intersecting lines and planes that make up the chair become one of the most popular features in modern interior decoration, namely visual transparency. It intuitively represents the idea of mechanical manufacturing and mass production, but in reality most tubular steel chairs are handmade in small batches. It is named after his teacher Wassily Kandinsky.
