Mass-produced chairs became common in the late 19th century, when the hand-made Louis XVI chairs of France and the Victorian chairs of England were coming to an end. At this time, artistic movements in design were gradually taking shape, and world-famous chairs were designed and made by creative and progressive designers.
The Art Nouveau movement took shape in the 1890s. The activities of this movement were initially more related to the standards of craftsmanship than to industrial production. But the emergence of this movement was an important stage in the trend towards functionalism. In general, the artists who supported Art Nouveau reacted against the diversity, or as they themselves called it, the confusion, of their time. They rejected the use of past forms and tried to create a general, new style that would harmonize all aspects of the visual environment into a complete object. A complete work of art that expresses social and cultural unity. The movement in France, Belgium, and Italy was characterized by the use of natural and abstract forms and the sinuous force of line and three-dimensional molding that combined the elements of the design into a coherent whole. But in the German Art Nouveau movement, things went a different way. In Munich, artists and designers such as August Endell, Herman Obrist, Peter Birns, and Richard Riemerschmid first controlled and harnessed unbroken curved lines and then transformed them into composite geometric forms. This development was pursued more seriously in Vienna, where Josef Hoffmann began working. The wide range of latticed iron objects he designed had rectangular and angular shapes.
In 1897, a dining chair was designed by Scottish architect and designer Charles René Mackintosh, which demonstrated a subtle use of materials, form, and symbolism. The chair was made of wood, but the use of negative space and thin, tapered elements created a visual sense of lightness and movement, unlike the heavy products of his predecessors. Unlike previous movements, Mackintosh painted his furniture (black or white), thus emphasizing the visual composition of structural elements rather than the presentation of the original surface of the materials.
The Austrian Josef Hoffmann was trained as an architect, but he flourished in the chaos of ideas that was spreading in the space in the 1980s, and became a founding member of the Vienna Section. His visual ideas were on a par with those of Charles René Mackintosh. He was a prolific designer of furniture, textiles, and metalwork. His architectural work is also strikingly modern, and his exhibition booth attracted many visitors. In Austria, during this period, we can mention the famous "Café Fladermoss" chair by "Joseph Hoffmann". This chair had some features of the Macintosh chair, but was more abstract and engineered than it.
Although the chair was made of wood, it seemed to have more standardized forms for industrial production.
It can be said that the unique chair was designed and manufactured based on the Joseph Hoffmann chair. The curved form of the upper part of the back of the chair is designed with almost the same elegance and proportions, but decorative motifs have been added to it. The number of support bars has been reduced and delicate decorations have been added for greater effect. The leg restraints have also been removed and instead the front legs have been turned to match the decorations of the back of the chair,
and have been worked to resemble lathe legs and have been coordinated with the arch of the backrest.
