The house is hailed as a masterpiece of functionalist architecture, with a concrete structure, glass exterior walls, and open interiors filled with natural light. Mies designed everything in the interior, from the light switches to the furniture. One of these was the chair known as the “Fiedersessel” (spring chair), which became known as the “Tugendhat Chair” when photographs of the Tugendhat House appeared in the media.

This sophisticated lounge chair offers comfort with its cantilever base, leather strap backrest and elegant shape. Two cushions and an optional armrest support the chair’s comfortable, dynamic frame. Available in two finishes and a wide range of upholstery options.
