“The underside of typical chairs and tables makes a confusing, unrestfull world,” states Finnish-born Eero Saarinen. “I want to clear up the slum of legs.”One single base of furniture style not only makes him a first place of the 1969 Museum of Modern Art Award, but also becomes a ground-breaking masterpiece lasting 50 years. For now it is still a elegant design in furniture. It includes a dining, coffee and side table.
The Eero Saarinen Style Tulip Table is a high quality reproduction in the style of the original design.
With the mid point of the last century came huge advances in material technology and manufacturing processes, new plastics, resins and fibreglass could be mass produced quickly, efficiently and with consistent results. These developments provided exciting opportunity in many areas; not least of all for furniture design and prompted a new age of industrial design.
In 1956 Eero Saarinen designed a complimentary range of tables and chairs which he named the Tulip range because of the slender, elegant stem like pedestals and organic shapes that typified the pieces. As with his namesake Eero Aarnios' designs the experimental use of materials and minimalist forms are often considered to be space age and their appeal has outlived the period in history from which they originated.
