Description
"We have chosen to re-issue the SURPIL chair, first for its comfort and secondly for its line. Made in aluminium (3. 5 kg/7. 5 lb), this timeless chair is at home anywhere: in a studio, kitchen, bedroom or on a terrace. The Surpil story, and that of the Stackable Furniture Company is first and foremost that of a french inventor, Julien-Henri Porché, who, starting in 1927 turned his attention to designing urniture made entirely from metal for use in public spaces (restaurant terraces, cafés and other public areas). The designer made his mark on French design of the period by creating chairs that were both functional and yet bestowed with a line that was graceful and light through the use of two tubes which were used to form the seat and the back. It is this feature that makes each piece appear light, while at the same time ensuring its underlying strength. Some of the ‘Surpil' chairs were used by other designers of the period, as the inclusion of a special insert on Surpil furniture that were displayed on the designer Gabriel Jouvin's stand in the Autumn fair in Paris in the 1929 publication ‘Metal Furniture' edited by the architect Pierre Pinsard attests. Their inclusion alongside the work of avant garde designers of the time like Louis Sognot , Robert Mallet-Stevens or Marcel Breuer is evidence of their importance at the time. This innovative, stackable furniture that was both hard-wearing and a precursor in its use of modernist lines, is similar to that which first came out of Germany as part of the Bauhaus movement. ".
