Tulip Stool
Eero Saarinen
Price: $730 (Grade B Fabric)
In his purist approach to architecture and interior design, Finnish born
Eero Saarinen sought the essential idea and reduced it to the most effective
structural solution within an overall unity of design. To that end, he
designed the 1956 Tulip Chair in terms of its setting, rather than a
particular shape. Saarinen said, "In any design problem, one should seek
the solution in terms of the next largest thing - if the problem is a chair,
then its solution must be found in the way it relates to the room..."
In creating the sinuous, single-legged Tulip, Saarinen realized his ideal of
formal unity and created a functional, 20th century icon.
