In 1935, Dutch architect Gerrit Rietveld designed the Utrecht armchair for the Metz & Co department store in Amsterdam. This armchair was conceived with a broad distribution perspective, focusing on its market appeal. Rietveld's design emphasizes the values of comfort and relaxation, making the Utrecht armchair an icon of the Neoplastic movement and the architect's experimental vision. The Dutch architect's approach to designing this piece involved a decomposition of its constituent elements. This deconstruction highlights its essential structure and sharp contours, giving the armchair a bold and modern appearance. The silhouette of the Utrecht armchair is distinctive and instantly recognizable, thanks to its unique and avant-garde design.
The Utrecht armchair was created to offer comfort and relaxation to its occupants. Its generous backrest and armrests provide ergonomic support, allowing for comfortable seating during extended periods of time. In addition to its functional design, the Utrecht armchair is an extremely elegant piece of furniture. Its geometric shape and clean lines integrate harmoniously into any setting. As for all Cassina armchairs, meticulous attention is given to the choice of materials and finishes, ensuring a refined and high-quality aesthetic.
Over the years, the Utrecht armchair by Cassina has become an icon of modern design. Its unique combination of form and functionality makes it a sought-after piece of furniture by design enthusiasts and comfort lovers alike. Rietveld's legacy and Cassina's craftsmanship come together to create an armchair of exceptional beauty and durability. In addition to the standard model, the Utrecht armchair by Cassina is available in other variants that expand the options for choice. The XL version of the armchair offers slightly larger dimensions, providing additional space and comfort for relaxation. The Utrecht sofa retains the same distinctive style, with clean lines and a bold silhouette. It offers a generous seating area that allows multiple people to enjoy the unique comfort and style offered by this iconic design.
The Utrecht armchair is available in the following sizes:
Inch. 25,2" in wide, 33,4" in depth, 27,6" in high (cm. 64x85x70h).
