Weil Chair – A Chair for Everyone | Workshop (DE)

Details

Affordable design for all – this idea is as old as design itself and still just as relevant. The Berlin designer and architect Van Bo Le-Mentzel transports the concept into the digital age with construction plans for his »Hartz IV furniture«, which can be downloaded from the Internet and built as a DIY project. For this workshop, Le-Mentzel has designed a brand-new chair – the Weil Chair – which participants can build under supervision.

Highlights from the Collection | GUIDED TOUR (DE)

The guided tour focusses on the highlights from the Vitra Design Museum collection, including rare and singular pieces from designers such as Gerrit Rietveld, Alvar Aalto, Charles & Ray Eames but also less well-known or anonymous designs, rarities and prototypes. The tour offers a unique possibility to experience the history of modern furniture design from its beginnings in the 19th century up to the present day in all its facets – from stylistic and technical innovations to the societal changes reflected in the objects.
