Originally designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe to furnish his German Pavilion at the International Exhibition in Barcelona in 1929, the Barcelona chair features the pure compositional structure that now epitomizes Modern architecture, their elegant form rendered them more as sculptural objects in the gallery-like Pavilion.
The top of the seat is made by grain Italian leather, the side and piping are constructed with faux leather. The welded and polished stainless steel frame provides sturdy support while being slim enough to make it seem as if the seat is floating in the air. The optional ottoman allows you to put up your feet and makes the chair great for lounging.

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969), original name Maria Ludwig Michael Mies, German-born American architect whose rectilinear forms, crafted in elegant simplicity, epitomized the International Style of architecture.
Mies’s most famous executed project of the interwar period in Europe was the German Pavilion (also known as the Barcelona Pavilion), which was commissioned by the German government for the 1929 International Exposition at Barcelona. It exhibited a sequence of marvelous spaces on a 53.6- by 17-metre travertine platform, partly under a thin roof, and partly outdoors, supported by chromed steel columns. The spaces were defined by walls of honey-coloured onyx, green Tinian marble, and frosted glass and contained nothing but a pool, in which stood a sculptural nude, and a few of the chairs Mies had designed for the pavilion. These cantilevered steel chairs, which are known as Barcelona chairs, became an instant classic of 20th-century furniture design.
Although Mies attracted a great number of disciples, his indirect influence was perhaps of even greater importance. He is the only modern architect who formulated a genuinely contemporary and universally applicable architectural canon, and office buildings all over the world echo his concepts.
