Modern and Retro create a timeless piece. The Barcelona Chair and Ottoman

We just love classic furniture and adore the timeless quality of the Barcelona chair. This chair was originally designed back in 1929, when the renewed Bauhaus architect Mies Van der Rohe collaborated with Lilly Reich. This chair quickly became an icon of modernism and
the Barcelona chair is now one of our showcase pieces.

It’s a piece that is both trendy in design and yet very functional. Anyone seated in the chair will enjoy the comfort that the chair offers, plus the feeling of safety that envelopes one while seated.

The design is both modern and retro in nature. The use of minimalist and sleek lines shows its trendiness, while the quilted cushion design is reminiscent of the design features of furniture in the 1960s and 1970s.

The solid stainless steel legs are sleekly curved, thus making the perfect combination with the quilt design. One will not find any screws or bolts that could be potential sources of injuries to the users. The back cushion of the chair is bound to its support by thick leather straps that are guaranteed not to sag or have molds despite the passage of time.

Any current or potential owner of the Barcelona chair will see that it is a good investment that will give the owner many, many days and nights of pleasure, safety and comfort to last perhaps a lifetime.

If you're thinking about the Barcelona Chair or any other name brand luxury office chairs, visit www.escadesigns.com. We are sure you will find something amazing to not only make your house or office a home but give it a little style.

"Anyone can make a three-legged table!" Really?!

Since the Noguchi Coffee Table was first introduced in 1948, it became one of the most distinguished pieces of furniture of the last century. Named for its designer, the sculptor Isamu Noguchi, the Noguchi Coffee Table celebrates the marriage between form and function, and offers its owner a structure that is both sculpture and furniture.

The classic table was originally created in 1944 with a simple design that was made of three elements alone – a glass top and two wooden base pieces. Herman Miller adopted the table and mass produced the piece that became an immediate success.
The table was made as a part of a challenge. “Anyone can make a three-legged table” once said a designer to Noguchi, but it turned out that no one can make a three legged table like Noguchi… The rest is history.



At Esca Designs you can find a quality reproduction that is manufactured to the same specifications as the original.
