Poster Series for Bauhaus 1919-2019

Poster series for the 100th years of Bauhaus which include the most iconic cantilever chair designs that produced from tubular steel.

In all of his furniture designs Mart Stam relied on straightforward forms, an aesthetic economy of means in the construction and the benefit of improved sitting comfort. In the case of the S 43 F Chair he combined the tubular steel frame with molded plywood shells for seat and back and thus created an absolute reduction. Due to the comfortable flexing effect of the frame, upholstery is unnecessary. It's clear, reserved form makes this cantilever S 43 F Chair an exemplary design in the spirit of modernism.
