In 1931, Mart Stam revolutionised a concept that had been followed for centuries by removing the back legs from chairs. This idea was subsequently developed and refined, giving rise to an object perfect for environments where sobriety and quality are the order of the day. What matters to Mart Stam when he designs furniture is the usefulness and economic aspect of the piece, whether in terms of aesthetics or the reduction of materials. The result is a chair with a rectilinear shape, a streamlined construction and improved seating comfort. His most minimalist model is the S 43 cantilever chair, for which he combines a tubular steel frame with a moulded wood back and seat. The clarity and sobriety of this cantilever chair perfectly reflect the modern spirit of the time. The artistic property right for this rigorously cubic-style chair without back legs is now held by Thonet. Durable and timeless, the S 43 chair is at home in a wide range of environments, both private and public.
