Famous Modern Furniture Timeline 1930 - 1939
This was a great time for timber furniture, the use of molded plywood and laminated timber creating fantastic organic pieces of modern furniture by Alvar Aalto in the Cantilevered Chair no. 31, the Paimio Chair and the Serving Cart.
Cantilevering was popular, Gerrit Rietveld's Zig Zag chair with it's simple harsh angular visual aspect but complex in construction and design in comparison to Aalto's Cantilevered Chair no. 31which was more curveceous and organic in form and made using laminated plywood steam bent.
Interesting to compare furniture designers of the same period using similar materials with quite dramatically different outcomes in design.
