The Barcelona Chair stands as one of the most celebrated design achievements of the 20th century. Created by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1929 for the German Pavilion at the International Exposition in Barcelona, this chair was conceived as a modern throne—a seat worthy of royalty, yet stripped of ornamentation. Mies van der Rohe’s guiding principle was reduction: the more elements removed, the purer the form became. Nearly a century later, the Barcelona Chair remains an emblem of modernist design, appearing in luxury residences, corporate lobbies, museum waiting rooms, and countless film and television productions. This Premium Edition replica honors the original with exacting proportions, authentic materials, and meticulous construction.

Design & Comfort
The Premium Barcelona Chair is engineered to match the original specification precisely. The backrest cushion aligns flush with the frame height, and the frame itself measures exactly 12 mm in thickness—details that distinguish a quality reproduction from an approximation. The chair’s signature X-frame construction distributes weight evenly, while the leather cushions, filled with high-resilience urethane foam, provide a balance of support and yield. This is seating designed not for brief encounters, but for prolonged comfort—whether in a residential living room or a high-profile office reception area.
