Pair Of Tempo Model Armchairs By Joseph-andré Motte

One of the most important French designers of the post-war period, he was a leading figure of modernism in both design and interior architecture. His work was characterized by exacting standards, a sense of proportion, and a need to harmonize beauty with utility. He designed numerous chairs for Steiner, each a volume with rounded or orthogonal forms that seem suspended in space, so delicate are their legs. Features found in these Tempo armchairs with their elegant base. A fusion of functional ergonomics and refined aesthetics. [The wonders of tomorrow will be born from the alliance of function, structure, and form, and the promise of an artificial environment elevated to and integrated with natural beauty will blossom.] Perfect condition, Nobilis wool fabric.
