The MR515 table has been reissued by Thonet for the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus. Mies van der Rohe probably designed it around 1928, when he designed the Esters and Lange houses in Krefeld.
The table first appeared in the 1935 Thonet catalog. The original model was declined in several variants by the Besau Maguerre studio in 2019.
The versions proposed by Marcel Besau and Eva Marguerre remain faithful to the original model, but a few details make all the difference. Their intervention is both subtle and technical. For example, the central crossing point of the table legs under the glass top is particularly elegant.
Based on their explorations of the original versions, the two designers have taken up the idea of an optional second shelf, which adds extra functionality and convenience to the series.
The result is a series of occasional tables that sensitively bring out the elegance of this furniture classic.
MR 517 – Ø50 x H46 cm
MR 517/1 with shelf – Ø50 x H46 cm
MR 516 – Ø70 x H38 cm
MR 516/1 with shelf – Ø70 x H38 cm
MR 515 – Ø70 x H60 cm
ThonetClip is a discreet and elegant way of concealing bulky electrical cables. The black magnetic clip can be attached anywhere on the tubular steel, and remains hidden behind the furniture, whatever its position in the room. The cable simply clips into the channel provided.
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, born in Aachen in 1886, joined Peter Behrens's architectural practice at the age of 22, where he met Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier. Mies van der Rohe soon became a leading figure in the new glass and steel architecture of the time. His design for a glass and steel tower on the Bahnhof Friedrichstrasse in Berlin was decisive. From 1925, he was responsible for the artistic direction of the Deutscher Werkbund. In 1927, the Weissenhof estate in Stuttgart was created under his direction. In 1930, Walter Gropius appointed Mies van der Rohe as director of the Bauhaus, which he had to close on 10 August 1933 under pressure from the NSDAP. He then emigrated to the United States. In 1938, he moved to Chicago, where he became head of the architecture department at the Armour Institute. He became one of the world's most influential architects. His steel-framed buildings with large glass curtain walls, such as the Seagram Building in New York (1958) and the National Gallery in Berlin (1968), are among the jewels of modern architecture. The design of his furniture generally evolved in relation to his buildings. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe died in 1969 in Chicago.
