Designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1927, the MR Chaise Lounge is a defining piece in the MR Collection, showcasing his exploration of tubular steel and cantilever design. This chaise is supported by a cantilevered tubular steel frame that offers flexibility, strength, and a comfortable floating effect. It removes the need for traditional rear legs, allowing the frame to adapt to the user’s weight.
Mies van der Rohe once remarked, “Architecture is a language; when you are very good, you can be a poet,” a sentiment is reflected in the MR Chaise Lounge, where simplicity and precision create a sense of harmony and refinement.
Its channel-quilted leather mattress, crafted in segmented sections, is supported by leather straps that provide both durability and support. Each detail in the design serves a purpose, reflecting Mies’s principle that “less is more.” This iconic chaise has appeared in films such as Batman v Superman, Justice League, Crazy, Stupid, Love, and Widows, solidifying its legacy as a cornerstone of modern design.
