ALUMINIUM GROUP EXECUTIVE CHAIR BY EAMES

When they designed it, they already envisioned how they would make it. It’s not just a beautiful form; it’s also a very specific physical activity. It’s a very elegant and simple design, but it only works because you know how to make things.

"Herman Miller introduced the Aluminum Group in 1958. Graceful silhouette, innovative comfort features, timeless design and obviously Eames.

The high-backed lounge chair has a deep, comfortable “sitting pocket”. A matching ottoman is available, and the chair now has new finish and material options with a 4-star base.

This chair is an authentic, fully licensed product of Herman Miller®, Inc. Eames is a licensed trademark of Herman Miller."

MUNKEGAARD CHAIR BY ARNE JACOBSEN'S REINTRODUCED BY HOWE

Danish brand Howe is relaunching a chair designed by Modernist architect Arne Jacobsen for his 1950s Munkegaard School.

The 1955 Munkegaard chair, also known as the Mosquito chair, was originally designed for the school located in Gentofte – just north of Copenhagen – which completed in 1957 and was listed in 1995.

"We've brought a 1950s classic up-to-date, making it greener and tougher than ever before, and making it what is today: a new classic for the 21st century," said Howe sales and marketing manager Lars Bruntse.

Starting in December, Howe will begin selling the Munkegaard chair in oak, ash and walnut veneer as well as stained veneer in black, white, grey, blue, red and coral.

This is the latest in a series of relaunches of Jacobsen's designs, including the 1958 Drop Chair created for his SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen – which had one its rooms revamped by Spanish designer Jaime Hayón last month. To put the chairs back into production, Howe worked with the designer's grandson, Tobias Jacobsen, who presides over the Arne Jacobsen Foundation. The brand acquired the rights to both the Tongue and Munkegaard through royalties agreements.

Other Modern seating designs that have recently gone back into production include Lina Bo Bardi's Bowl chair and Hans Wegner's CH88 chair.
