More about 'chemnitz', 'Nils Holger Moormann' in our journal

Stühle zum (Be)Sitzen, a smow Pop-up at the Grassi Museum für Angewandte Kunst, Leipzig

...Stühle zum (Be)Sitzen's brief tour through the (hi)story of chair design in western Europe ends with Harry Thaler's 2011 Pressed Chair through Nils Holger Moormann, a chair that as Harry once told us began as "a small fork made from one piece of wood", became a desire to create a chair in one material, and which through the choice of pressed aluminium not only neatly translates the moulded plywood of, for example, Arne Jacobsen, Aino and Alvar Aalto or Charles and Ray Eames into metal, but reminds that the plastic shell of the RAR that rocks next to the Pressed Chair in Stühle zum (Be)Sitzen began life as pressed steel, before that was deemed too expensive and the, then, novel fibreglass was used... And a Pressed Chair produced by Nils Holger Moormann, a manufacturer, a furniture publishing house, who arose from the ferment of 1980s Neue Deutsche Design, that questioning, challenging, provoking and polarising of and with furniture design and relationships to furniture of that period, by the eponymous Nils Holger Moormann who as a designer took the impulses and experiences of Neue Deutsche Design and began developing furniture that for all it appears very far removed from the brashness, insolence, humour, questioning, challenging, provoking and polarising of the 1980s, is but an alterative expression of that brashness, insolence, humour, questioning, challenging, provoking and polarising...

Thus while other furniture publishers dance to the tune of the international trade fair crowd, Nils Holger Moormann organise their own trade fair...

Hallo Horst! Or, How, and why, the EW 1192 became Horst.......

As noted from the exhibition Der ungesehene Designklassiker at the Deutsches Stuhlbaumuseum, Rabenau, alongside the introduction, re-introduction, enabled to the EW 1192 by Horst Heyder, a work that was, in all probability, the most widely found, most widely...

(smow) introducing: Rowac

The return of an old favourite, and no not (smow) introducing, although Welcome Back!!!, but the Rowac-Schemel, the Rowac stool, a work initially launched in 1909 as one of the world's first sheet steel furniture objects, a work that once graced not only...

The Historia Supellexalis: "G" for Grcic

Grcic A Konstantin; A Nurturing; A Reduction There are a great many legends surrounding the origins of Grcic, and while many are centred around the regions today known as München and Wuppertal, the more plausible appears to be that Grcic arose in the days of...
