Macklowe Galleries in New York commissioned me to replicate this classic chair by the Belgian architect, designer and furniture maker Henri Van De Velde. His work spanned the Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and Weiner Werkestatte periods, and his designs for everything from textiles to locksets demonstrate his commitment to total design.
This deceptively simple chair is an example of the refinement and elegance that he brought to every design.
