Description
The Miniatures Collection encapsulates the entire history of industrial furniture design – moving from Historicism and Art Nouveau to the Bauhaus and New Objectivity, from Radical Design and Postmodernism all the way up to the present day.
Exactly one-sixth the size of the historical originals, the chairs are all true to scale and precisely recreate the smallest details of construction, material and colour.
Produced and distributed by Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein/Germany after an original model by One Off Ltd., London. With the kind permission of Ron Arad, London. All rights reserved.
In 1988 and 1989, Arad's London "One Off" work shop created an entire series of »Big Easy« armchairs using bent sheet steel welded at the edges. The "Big Easys" were brought out as individual items or small limited series; they all had a striking basic form and inflated arms reminiscent of comics – but they differed in terms of the welding and colour. In the course of time, the initially coarse, roughly welded "Big Easys" went through changes, first becoming colourful lacquered chairs with smooth surfaces and then elegant versions made of polished stainless steel.
