Thonet new version: 107 Chair

  Who doesn't know which is the Thonet chair? At least if you like interior design, you should. The original cafe chair were designed in 1859 and is considered the most successful mass produced in the world to date.  The basis was a new technique -the bending of solid wood -  that Michael Thonet developed and perfected during the 1850s and it was the first time serial furniture production was possible. 

  But recently, Robert Stadler has created a new chair called 107 for Thonet. The new design borrows the language of the original but incorporates a flat backrest and can be produced in a process that's almost entirely automated.

  The 107 has been designed by Stadler for the interior of a restaurant in Paris to the Corso brand. Words of Stadler: 

  "To design a new bistrot chair for Thonet is a touchy task. Initially I was proposed to customize a typical Thonet chair for the Corso restaurants, for which I am in charge of the design. But I preferred to elaborate a new chair instead of producing one more Designer comment on this essential piece of furniture. My starting point was the fact that today chair 214 (historically baptized Nr. 14) is rather expensive, which represents a certain break in regards to Thonet’s history. "

   Quién no conoce la famosa silla Thonet? Al menos si te gusta el diseño de interiores o la decoración deberías de conocerla. Fue diseñada en 1859 y es considerada la silla con mayor éxito en fabricación en serie con más de 30 millones hasta 1930. La silla se realizó mediante la curvatura de la madera mediante una técnica tradicional curvada al vapor.


  Recientemente,  el austriaco Robert Stadler basándose en esta silla ha creado la silla 107 para Thonet. Continua con el mismo lenguaje que la original pero entre sus novedades se encuentra que puede producirse en un método casi automático y en el respaldo plano.

  La silla 107 ha sido creada por Stadler para el interior de un restaurante en París para la marca Corso.
