Seller: marcijasinsk-4 ✉️ (474) 100%, Location: Corby, Northamptonshire, GB, Ships to: GB, Item: 305278527217 EERO SAARINEN General Motors 3 Seat Leather Sofa & Chair Design Icon UK Delivery. Cushions in expanded foam at different densities; not removable covering in leather. As with most glass products, sensible precautions should be adopted which would include, but is not limited to, never placing hot objects on glass surfaces and understanding that (due to their age) glazed units, glass shelves and surfaces are unlikely to be made from safety glass and will thus have limited strength and weight-loading capacities. Eero Saarinen designed this sofa and chair in the 1950s, as a part of a seating series for the lobbies of The General Motors Technology Center in Warren, Michigan. Veering away from his usual inspiration, organic elements, he looked to the revolutionary design of a stock car for inspiration. He specifically focused on the stock car seat, which was known for not only its comfort but also its superb construction and upholstery. To accurately represent the design of the stock car seat Eero Saarinen first conquered the difficulty of obtaining a perfectly horizontal surface through the seat and armrests. Also, Saarinen leaning away from fiberglass, the original material for the frame of a stock car seat, had to devise a method of having the leather adhere perfectly to the frame for an aerodynamic look. Lastly, the importance of the seat has a slight angle to the rear, so that the person lounging would have the same feeling of sitting back into the driver's seat of a stock car. To this day some of the original lounge series still appears in the lobbies of General Motor Headquarters, also a prototype of this chair appears in the M.O.M.A. These reproductions are the first to be manufactured since the original design and pieces back in the 1950s. Manufactured In Italy. Materials: Three-seat sofa and chair with structure in a chrome-plated square shaped steel tube. Wooden frame covered with molded expanded foam. Cushions in expanded foam at different densities; not removable covering in leather. A mid century design classic, and this is a lovely example. Solid, sturdy furniture, will last forever...
