Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s MR Side Chair was designed in 1927 as part of his contribution to the Weissenhof exhibit in Stuttgart, Germany. The chair’s cantilevered design uses tubular steel – a technological novelty at the time – to create an intuitively accessible and ergonomic seat. (When asked why he created chairs with generously sized seats, Mies van der Rohe allegedly replied that he designs chairs he’d be most comfortable sitting in.) Still made to Mies’ original specifications, the MR Side Chair is perfectly balanced, featuring the material innovation and lack of ornamentation that epitomize the International Style. It was awarded the Museum of Modern Art Award in 1977 and the Design Center Stuttgart Award in 1978. The frame of this piece is stamped with the KnollStudio logo and Mies van der Rohe’s signature. This is the authentic MR Side Chair produced by Knoll. Bold tubular steel frame in polished chrome or ultra-matte powder-coated finish. Contrasting materials lend tactile impact. Comfortable cantilevered seat. Brand Knoll® Collection MR Collection General Dimensions 31" H 19¼" W 27¼" D
