Story

Like the bicycle. Breuer''s furniture pie-ces use standardized materials and joints, are easy to move and allow views through the piece. Both product families also share an emphasis on linearity. In a design he sketched in 1922, Breuer undertook the experiment of combining the bicycle with seating furniture to produce a couch on wheels. This project, however, remained on paper for a long time.

This is an object of furniture that abolishes the polarity of relaxation and movement.

Eternit – rough, neutral and lightweight – was the solution. This led to the creation of a cement board with a strength of 10 millimetres. Straightforward, oiled and better with use. The rest is pure craftsmanship: a steel frame ...
