[Translate to English:] Text

Marcel Breuer, the junior master and head of the Dessau furniture workshop appointed by Walter Gropius, designed the club chair B3 in 1926 as a “design for a new lifestyle”. It was later called the “Wassily chair” in reference to the revered master Wassily Kandinsky. The chair was part of the furniture collection designed for the Bauhaus Building in Dessau, which opened in 1926.
