The Knoll Tugendhat™ Chair is more than just a piece of furniture; it’s a symbol of modernist design at its finest. This chair, originally crafted by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1929 for the Tugendhat Villa in the Czech Republic, embodies the architect’s signature “less-is-more” philosophy. Its cantilevered steel frame offers structural integrity and invites movement, gently bouncing with the sitter to provide an unexpectedly dynamic seating experience.
The Tugendhat Chair’s refined construction is matched by its luxurious comfort. Thick cushions filled with resilient urethane foam and down-like Dacron polyester fiberfill ensure that this chair is as inviting as it is visually striking. The leather-strap back adds both support and an extra layer of visual interest, while the choice of premium Spinneybeck® leathers or Knoll Textiles for upholstery allows for personalization without sacrificing quality.
This chair is an authentic piece of design history, with each frame stamped with the Knoll logo and Mies van der Rohe’s signature, ensuring its lifetime authenticity. Available in a polished chrome or ultra-matte powder-coated finish, the Tugendhat Chair seamlessly blends artistry and functionality. Priced at $6,595, this chair is a statement piece that elevates any space with its timeless elegance and connection to one of architecture’s greatest minds. Whether you’re a design aficionado or simply appreciate the finer things, the Knoll Tugendhat Chair is a worthy investment in both style and comfort.
