Weil Chair – A Chair for Everyone | WORKSHOP (DE)

Affordable design for all – this idea is as old as design itself and still just as relevant. The Berlin designer and architect Van Bo Le-Mentzel transports the concept into the digital age: construction plans for many of his designs can be downloaded from the Internet and built as a DIY project. For this workshop, Le-Mentzel has designed a new chair – the Weil Chair – which participants can build under supervision.

€ 175.00 per person
Duration: 8 hours

»Iwan Baan« – Guided tour at the Vitra Design Museum (DE)

Details

Iwan Baan is one of today’s leading photographers of architecture and the built environment. His images document the growth of global megacities, explore traditional and informal housing structures, and portray buildings by prominent contemporary architects including Rem Koolhaas, Herzog & de Meuron, Kazuyo Sejima, and Tatiana Bilbao. From October 2023 to March 2024, the Vitra Design Museum presents the first major retrospective of Baan’s oeuvre. The exhibition »Iwan Baan: Moments in Architecture« reflects the photographer’s wide scope by drawing up a panorama of global architecture in the early twenty-first century, of its urban and social contexts, and of the people who use it.
