Modern classic furniture during the mid century created a very deep impact on our living space,the iconic pieces designed by the modern classic furniture designers such as Charles Eames office furniture,Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair,Van Der Rhoe Barcelona Chair and many more iconic classic designs,all of which had a revolutionary impact on our modern living space,thinking a bit deeper and we soon realize that this timeless classics are mainly popular only in our living and dining rooms furniture,particularly the Eames played a major role in office furniture during the modern classic era,one big question remain is why the popularity of these iconic designs doesn,t not seem to be recognizable and wide popular in our modern gardens.The reproductions of modern classic furniture in our modern time neglected the importance of modern classic furniture design ideas when it comes to garden furniture.
All of our modern garden furniture seem to be stripped from the timeless classic inspiration,as if there are no models of inspirations to follow in our classic furniture heritage.Looking at some of the famous Classic designs such Eero Saarinen,Harry Bertoia,Isamu Noguchi and many more and soon we realize how these designer fell in love with nature and created some of the most iconic pieces in landscape furniture.
I believe there are a great potential in modern classic furniture designs to be inspired and added to our modern garden furniture,a typical examples would be the Diamond Chair by Harry Bertoia,Eames DKR Bikin and La Chaise Longue,Ghyczy Garden Egg Chair,Eero Arnio Bubble chair,Thinking a bit deeper,Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair which was designed for the lobby for the Royal Radison Hotel in Copenhagen as a sculptural landscape feature,Jacobson as a revolutionary modern classic designer did not stop in his inspiration at the outer look,in fact he had a deep vision in connecting between the outside landscape features and the interior design of the hotel reception,imagine if his original classic designs such as the swan chair or even better the Egg chair was manufactured and reproduced as garden piece of furniture with a different style and variations.
So imagine if we combine between the Eames Design ideas in metal rod bending techniques and the Jacobsen swan chair and soon we come up with a new design of swan chair made of a sparkling shiny wires or even better a wire mesh egg chair as a garden piece of furniture.the ideas are endless for the designers and the modern reproduction furniture.
Some of the most cutting edge classic designs that stood the test of time and manifest the greatest desire in human furniture inspirations.
George Nelson Coconut Chair
Great designs from modern classic furniture era.mainly inspired as loungers and reception furniture settings and some of them were mainly designed as dining chairs and lounge chairs but they never been redesigned or reproduced in any other form of designer furniture,the Jacobsen swivel egg chair is very unique designer lounge chair and very rich in inspirations and reproduction design ideas,it is so easy to convert this timeless classic design into a revolutionary iconic garden piece of furniture simply by applying Charles & Ray Eames bending rod techniques,imagine a wire mesh egg chair in the middle of a green garden under a nice tree.How beautiful that could be ?
The reproductions of modern classic furniture is very rich with amazing garden furniture inspirations and clever ideas and the sky is the limit.Modern furniture designers can really explore and a study a wealth of design ideas just by getting inspired by this timeless heritage from the mid century ..Very smart and elegant way to redesign our modern gardens with an artistic classic touch.
