The MR Adjustable Chaise Lounge was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1927. This piece is part of the MR Collection featuring some of Mies’ earliest steel furniture designs. The collection draws inspiration from the tubular steel work of fellow Bauhaus master Marcel Breuer and 19th-century iron rocking chairs. Mies incorporated tubular steel and the cantilever principle to create the MR series of furniture pieces. The MR Adjustable Chaise Lounge utilizes a seamless tubular steel frame with adjustable height and angle settings achieved through a hook and knob system on a two-piece frame. Its leather mattress is created in channel quilted and seamed sections, supported by leather straps. The iconic piece has made notable appearances in popular culture, featured in films such as Batman v Superman, Justice League, Crazy, Stupid, Love, and Widows.
