MR Stool: Padded

USD $960.00

The MR Stool was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1927. Influenced by Marcel Breuer’s use of tubular steel and inspired by 19th-century iron rocking chairs, the MR Stool features a seamless tubular steel frame complemented by channel quilted leather cushions sectioned into a series of seamed panels. The MR Stool is a footrest for the MR Lounge Chairs, impromptu seating, or a table for books and magazines. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe once remarked, “It is better to be good than to be original,” highlighting his commitment to improving existing design conventions. The original MR Stool has been recognized with awards such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) Award in 1977 and the Design Centre Stuttgart Award in 1978.

Mies van der Rohe

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) was a German-American architect and designer who profoundly shaped modern architecture and furniture design. He began his career in Berlin before emigrating to the United States in 1937. Van der Rohe''s minimalist aesthetic is epitomized by his motto "less is more." His iconic Barcelona Chair and Ottoman (1929) were designed with Lilly Reich for welcoming the Spanish King and Queen to the German Pavilion at the Barcelona International Exhibition. His Barcelona Daybed (1930) and MR Chair series (1927) further showcase his mastery of minimalist form with organic and industrial materials. Mies's architectural achievements include the Seagram Building in New York and the Farnsworth House . His work is characterized by clean lines, detailed craftsmanship, and innovative use of industrial materials.
