Furniture of yesteryear - icons of today
High you should live!
All of them have remained young, whether they were designed 100 or 40 years ago: all these pieces of furniture are design classics and collector's items. What we now take for granted - forming wood in one piece, combining different materials and ergonomically adapting seating surfaces to the body - was unusual and revolutionary at the time.
Designers such as the Finn Alvar Aalto and the Dane Arne Jacobsen experimented how a piece of furniture can be not only practical but also beautiful and gave everything they needed to realize their ideas. That sometimes took years. The result is timeless furniture, processed in the best quality, which are still produced today according to the original designs. Good luck!
