The exhibition included a series of fully furnished interiors by architects and designers associated with Viennese modern design, among them Otto Prutscher, Hugo Gorge, Josef Hoffmann, and Moritz Hergesell. Recent scholarship has situated the exhibition within the broader discourse surrounding Viennese Wohnkultur in the interwar period, a design culture that maintained a close dialogue with craftsmanship, material richness, and the cultivated traditions of domestic comfort. Rather than embracing a purely industrial or radically reductionist aesthetic, many Viennese designers pursued a moderated modernism rooted in the traditions of domestic interior culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe present chairs embody precisely this synthesis. The structural frame remains visually legible while simultaneously functioning as a decorative compositional element. Their architectural construction is defined by a rigorously geometric exposed wooden framework composed of intersecting vertical and horizontal members that form an open lattice surrounding deeply upholstered cushions. The cubic structure, low horizontal stance, and integrated volumetric upholstery reflect the restrained but luxurious modernism characteristic of Vienna in the late 1920s. The precision of the joinery and the refinement with which the curved and rectilinear elements are resolved exemplify the high level of craftsmanship characteristic of traditional Viennese furniture production. Their design appears entirely consistent with the broader evolution of Viennese interwar modernism associated with figures such as Josef Frank, Oskar Strnad, and the Austrian Werkbund circle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Morentz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53666039365975,"sku":null,"price":27500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5187\/1548\/files\/50118031_St_P_14.jpg?v=1780070136"},{"product_id":"italian-mid-century-modern-mahogany-dining-table-with-brass-details","title":"Italian Mid-Century Modern Mahogany Dining Table with Brass Details","description":"Dining table, brass, mahogany, Italy, 1950s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis striking Italian dining table from the 1950s is crafted in richly figured mahogany and showcases a bold architectural design.

During the Second World War, the two met in a stalag, a Prussian prisoner camp, while being imprisoned by the Germans in East Prussia and started a great friendship based on their intense and deep passion for interior design. In 1948, Chambron resigned from his job as a painter and decorator on the Rue Nollet in Paris to move to Lille, in the North of France and join Guillerme. A year later, the two met cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, who was the owner of a workshop close by. It was during this meeting, that they decided to create their own company. They named it “Votre Maison”, meaning “Your Home”, which became the soul of the company. With this, they wanted to create pieces that focused on functionality combined with a beautiful design useful for daily life, by which they created a worldwide reputation. Most of the furniture designed by this duo shows a strong character and has a great expressive woodwork. The three of them divided their work equally. Overall, Guillerme worked as a designer, Chambron as a commercial, and Dariosecq’s workshop manufactured the pieces. Throughout their career, ‘Votre Maison’ produced over two thousand models, leaving a lasting mark in the world of design.","brand":"Morentz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53666046968151,"sku":null,"price":12800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5187\/1548\/files\/50118702_St_P_3.jpg?v=1780070414"},{"product_id":"carl-gustaf-hiort-af-ornas-valipala-grand-library-5","title":"Carl Gustaf Hiort af Ornäs 'Välipala' Grand Library","description":"Carl Gustaf Hiort af Ornäs for Huonekalu Mikko Nupponen, 'Välipala' bookcase, teak, lacquered wood , Finland, 1950s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned by the Finnish designer Carl Gustaf Hiort, this wall unit is an architectural masterpiece composed of various wooden elements, resulting in a clean and structured composition that remains highly flexible in use.

Additionally, the chest showcases Nakashima's dedication to craftsmanship, with a design that emphasizes simplicity, functionality, and respect for natural form.

He was born in Spokane, Washington and enrolled in the University of Washington program in architecture. After his graduation in 1931, he decided to live his life as a bohemian in France. Afterwards, he spent some time in North Africa and eventually settled in Japan for some time. There, he started working for Antonin Raymond, who was an American architect. While working for Raymond, Nakashima extensively toured Japan while trying to understand the Japanese architecture and design. Around 1940, Nakashima decided to leave Japan and returned to the US. However, like many others with a Japanese ancestry, he was interned during World War Two and sent to Camp Minidoka in Idaho. There, Nakashima met a master woodcarver who tutored him in Japanese crafting techniques. From him, he learned to master traditional Japanese hand tools and joinery techniques. From here onwards, he began to use woodworking with discipline and patience, striving towards perfection in his designs. In 1943, he was released from the camp and invited by Antonin Raymond to live in his farm in New Hope, Pennsylvania. During this period, New Hope formed the home port for many great designers such as Phillip Lloyd Powell and Paul Evans. Nakashima was a very spiritual and philosophical designer. The basis of Nakashima's work was derived from his practice of integral yoga. Therefore, primary goal of Nakashima's work was to live in harmony with nature rather than to destroy it for their own use. Above all, Nakashima wanted to embody a message to all modern societies that we must constantly remember the eternal in all that we do. He often said of his own work that he gave trees a second life. His designs are known for their exquisite craftsmanship and are often 'signed' with dovetails and butterfly connections. With these ideas in mind, Nakashima created his own style based on Japanese designs and shop practices, combined with the American and International Modern Styles. Therefore, he became one of the best 20th century American Art furniture designers. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Morentz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53666047099223,"sku":null,"price":59500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5187\/1548\/files\/50118250_St_P_4_8ddfce38-dfdb-409e-97c6-97d0142e0611.jpg?v=1780412360"},{"product_id":"rare-1930s-alvar-aalto-for-stylclair-in-plywood-and-braided-straw-1","title":"Rare 1930s Alvar Aalto for Stylclair in Plywood and Braided Straw","description":"Alvar Aalto for Stylclair, lounge chair, beech plywood, braided straw, France, 1930s \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe present a rare lounge chair designed by Alvar Aalto, produced by Stylclair under the license from Wohnbedarf. Aalto's furniture first appeared in France around 1933 in Lyon, following the establishment of Stylclair by Marcel Michaud and C.L. Zenone, which set the stage for Aalto's innovative designs to enter the French market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBefore Artek's founding in late 1935, Aalto's bentwood furniture gained traction across Europe, with key distribution hubs in London and Zurich, Finmar and Wohnbedarf respectively. Art historian Sigfried Giedion played a significant role in expanding Aalto's reach internationally. Giedion's move to France solidified his connection with Stylclair situated in Lyon, a gallery focusing on modern furniture and contemporary art. Through a partnership with Wohnbedarf, Stylclair owned the exclusive rights to sell Aalto's wooden furniture in France. By March 1934, Stylclair had opened a store in Paris at 43 Rue de la Bourse, offering a curated selection of Aalto and Breuer furniture, firmly establishing Aalto's presence in the French market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSigfried Giedion, along with architect Werner Max Moser and businessman Rudolf Graber, established Zentralstelle für zeitgemässen Wohnbedarf (now Wohnbedarf AG) in 1931, setting a new standard for Swiss furnishings stores by designing their own modern furniture. This pioneering store in Zurich was not just a place to buy furniture; it was a reflection of a new lifestyle, catering to changing tastes and the growing desire for modernity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis chair showcases the iconic bent plywood design of the armchair model 42, also known as the \"Small Paimio,\" originally created in 1932. What sets this piece apart is its meticulously braided straw upholstery, which enhances its natural aesthetic and harmonizes beautifully with the wooden frame's organic lines. Archival research has not identified who specifically added this distinctive feature, yet it was a common practice for Wohnbedarf to be involved in tailoring designs to local tastes in order to stay competitive and relevant. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAino Marsio-Aalto, Alvar Aalto's wife and collaborator, played a crucial role in shaping the product line for Artek. Her \"travel diary\" provides insights into her inspirations, often referencing textiles and patterns from various cultures. While visiting Stylclair's Paris gallery, she observed a range of materials that would later influence Artek's products, such as cotton zebra fabric from Lyon, coconut matting, and room dividers made of straw. These notes reveal how the French market and local trends might have impacted Aalto's designs. It seems plausible that Aalto's designs may have been adapted by Stylclair (or Wohnbedarf) to align with the French taste of that time. The chair under consideration exudes a more rustic charm, and considering the warmer days of summer, the incorporation of the braided element adds a practical touch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe chair has been restored to the finest condition achievable for a piece of its age. However, it is important to note that the frame has limited load-bearing capacity.

Aalto is known for his humanistic approach towards design while retaining its functional purpose. The frame is comprised of a bent stem that is supported by a V-shaped base that diverges in two directions. With practicality in mind, the frame can be simultaneously used as a bookstand. The lightbulb is surrounded by a hemispherical shade joined by a double-layered diffuser, which contributes to a finer and more widely distributed light beam. A row of small slots structure one side of the shade through which the light can escape in a subtle manner. Aalto employed a unique way of covering the base and stem of the lamp by using leather.

The sofa can easily be adjusted into a lounge position by pulling the seat forward, allowing for a more comfortable and laid-back seating experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBastiaan Johannes van Pelt (1900-1945) was a Dutch furniture designer and interior designer. As son of a book printer, he spend his time after school working in several printing companies in Holland. At that time he already engaged in topics like designing furniture, interiors, carpets and fabrics, graphic work and pottery. In 1927, he quit his old job and started to work at a furniture factory owned by his father-in-law J.C. Jansen in Overschie. Together with his brother-in-law, Jan Jansen, they produced various designs for furniture which were manufactured in series. During the first half of the 1930s, Van Pelt created a number of designs for tubular steel furniture, which were manufactured by the company D3 and E.M.S. Overschie. During this period, his designs evoke a strong resemblance to the ethos of the iconic Bauhaus. Simplicity and functionality were the core values within this movement, and Van Pelt managed to create furniture according to them, by the application of tubular steel, simple geometric forms, and materials which facilitated mass production. After 1938, Van Pelt turned away from the functionalist mindset and began designing in the style of the ‘Delfste school’, which was more engaged in historical shapes and traditional manufacturing methods. Van Pelt always dreamed of having his own business and he did not hesitate when he got the opportunity to take over the store ‘My Home woninginrichting’ located on ‘De Lange Houtstraat’ in The Hague, in 1931. He transformed the store into a thriving company in the field of modern home furnishings. It functioned primarily as a show room where he exhibited a selected range of modern furniture and upholstery accessories. For instance, his collections consisted of specifically metal furniture and lamps by D3, E.M.S. Overschie, and Thonet in combination with his own designs. The success of the store resulted in opening three more showrooms in Maastricht (1934), Enschede (1936) and, Amsterdam (1938). His clientele consisted of the wealthy bourgeoisie and middle class, and in particular of lawyers and doctors. Diplomats who visited the royal city for a while, had the possibility to rent furniture from his store. Bas van Pelt decided to actively participate during World War II. His country house ‘De Pal’ in Emst served as a depot for ammunition and a hiding place between 1943 and 1945. Architect and industrial designer Willem Hendrik Gispen (1890-1981) arrived at Van Pelt’s place to hide from the Germans after he got released. From May 1944, he was imprisoned for a whole year in various concentration camps.
