I have mixed feelings about this chair project....I'm excited to design it and I'm excited for the end product, but I'm a teensy weensy bit nervous about working in the wood shop!! I'm hoping and praying I'll come out of it with of all my fingers...
ANYWAYS, I researched the Barcelona chair. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this chair! It's designed so beautifully and it's so simple. I also love how modern it looks, though it was made over 80 years ago. It was designed to be timeless, and Rohe definitely achieved that. I really enjoyed reading about it's origins and how it was designed to accompany the interior of the German Pavilion at the Barcelona Int. Expo in 1929.
Im excited to start designing one that looks like it!
