The Barcelona Chair – A Chair to Love
The Barcelona chair by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was designed for the World Exposition in Barcelona, Spain in 1929. Mies van der Rohe used leather straps to suspend leather-covered cushions from a steel frame plated with chrome. This design concept was fashion forward and unique for its time.
The Barcelona chair has been hailed as the King of chairs. One can admire the aesthetics, and appreciate the flow of form and function of this iconic chair. Keeping the mindset that less is more, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe along with his associate Lilly Reich created a timeless chair based on simplicity yet inspired by ancient Egyptians. The Barcelona chair is really a chair that stands alone as the epitome of modern furniture design.
The Barcelona chair conveys grace and presence in any room or dwelling. It blends well in a traditional, contemporary, or modern setting. These exceptionally well designed chairs give loft style apartments an ambiance and sophistication that no ordinary piece of furniture can offer. You will also find them in the homes of aristocrats, the wealthy, in museums, posh offices, and hallways of design minded people and everywhere in between.
Consider the beauty and quality of a high end reproduction of a Barcelona chair and you will understand why the most discriminating of people fall in love with this iconic modern classic. A quality Barcelona chair reproduction is expertly crafted using top shelf materials to reproduce the original design conceived by one of the most famous architects of the twentieth century; Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
Barcelona chairs are elegant in sitting rooms, smart looking in libraries, and inviting in bedrooms. They make a royal statement in a hallway or a receptive area. These exquisite chairs were designed and intended for royalty; the King and Queen of Spain. Is your bum royal enough for these chairs?
Bauhaus designers wanted functional, mass-produced furniture for the average working class, but the Barcelona chair was too expensive and difficult to manufacture for the masses.
Even so, we think of the Barcelona chair as a modern, timeless, classic piece of artfully crafted furniture that is still in high demand more than 80 years later when it was originally created. With this chair, Mies van der Rohe made an important historical statement. He showed how a functional item used to merely sit upon, could be transformed into an artistic piece of sculpture.

Why does Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini not rate Dutch midfielder Rafael Van Der Vaart?
Van Der Vaart is being kept at Real Madrid whilst the manager has no intention of "giving him playing minutes". Why waste such a talented player, given the opportunity to play and build some consistency he would offer as much as any of the major signings Madrid have made.
Apparently, Van Der Vaart is a bit of a cancer on all the teams he's played for, from the time at Ajax to Hamburg all the way to Madrid. Guy's talented but clubs usually run out of patience for him. Other clubs won't pay for him and his baggage so Real has to keep him until someone makes a desperate buy for him.
