od 12.2 .2009 probíhá v prostorech Uměleckoprůmyslového muzea v Brně expozice ohýbaného nábytku 1. poloviny 20. století.

Moravská galerie v Brně vlastní největší institucionální sbírku ohýbaného nábytku v České republice. Výstava představí nábytkové kusy nejen z této sbírky, ale také vybrané kusy z majetku soukromých sběratelů.

Objevení výroby nábytku z ohýbaného bukového dřeva patří k největším událostem v nábytkářství. Celou druhou polovinu 19. století byl vývoj v rukou Michaela Thoneta a jeho synů. Kolem přelomu 19. a 20. století však dochází ke změně, ohýbaný nábytek začíná stále víc zajímat také architekty a designéry a nastává nová éra. Vzájemný protiklad použití progresivní
technologie na výrobu nábytku historizujících tvarů vyprovokoval jako prvního Adolfa Loose a vznik židle pro Café Museum ve Vídni otevřel možnosti vzájemné komunikace firmy
a profesionálního návrháře. Firma, která ji zahájila, byla Jacob & Josef Kohn, a stala se tak hybatelem událostí v oboru před první světovou válkou. Na návrzích nábytku pro mezinárodní výstavu v Paříži v roce 1900 už firma Jacob & Josef Kohn spolupracovala s žákem vídeňské Uměleckoprůmyslové školy Gustavem Sieglem. Hned po něm následovala spolupráce s tvůrci kolem Wiener Werkstätte jako byli Josef Hoffmann nebo Koloman Moser. Otto Wagner navrhoval posléze i pro fi rmu Gebrüder Thonet a po něm Otto Prutscher a Jan Kotěra. Modernisté nastavili posun vývoje směrem k jednoduchosti, geometrii. Nový design podporoval i rozvoj technologií. Válečné události přinesly změny ve fungování obou hlavních výrobců nábytku. V roce 1917 fúzoval Kohn s firmou Mundus a roku 1925 vznikl další fúzí Thonet-Mundus. Nastolený trend spolupráce s architekty a designéry pokračoval. Vedle jmen vídeňských modernistů jako byli Josef Hoffmann nebo Gustav Siegel, který se stal vedoucím návrhářského ateliéru firmy Thonet-Mundus, se objevují Josef Frank, Ebenhard Kraus, Adolf G. Schneck, Hans a Wassili Luckhardtovi. Firma Thonet– Mundus na konci 20. let také rozšířila sortiment o nábytek z ohýbaných bezešvých kovových trubek. Použití technické novinky pro výrobu nábytku prosadili designéři německého Bauhausu, kteří s trubkou experimentovali už od roku 1923. Největší pozornost materiálu věnoval Marcel Breuer, který vytvořil celou řadu návrhů. Kovový nábytek se stal takovým fenoménem, že se jeho tvarosloví zpětně promítalo do konstrukce nábytku z bukového dřeva.

for their design of house in never, never land they made four major decisions; 

to minimize tree and shrub removal or pruning on the allotment, raise more than 80% of the building mass on piles to avoid any sort of disturbance on the ground  (paving, crops, watering or other input) which might eventually alter its properties, clustering all the waste filtering and treatment equipment and compensating for the amount of substrate affected by the foundation by including an equivalent mass of substrate in various parts of the skin around the buildings, mixed with a water-retaining gelatin to reproduce the moister of original soil in shallower conditions. the design work began with phase 0, consisting on the close scrutiny and mapping of every tree and shrub. the geometries of the project were  then adapted correspondingly and the construction was inscribed in the space 
available in between the threes, which thus flow through the building interiors.

These Chilean landmark/benchmarks are as much art installation as they are civic architecture. Three architecture students, R.Hernández, M. Valdés, and O. Véliz created these pieces as a means to delineate an ancient path. These modules give visitors a direction, as well as a place to sit. The pieces themselves are all built from small sections of wood, none larger than 16 centimeters.

creative industrial objects is a vienna based design studio. one of their designs is the mobile workstation 
‘ci desk’. the small cart is mounted on three wheels that allow it to be moved around. a variety of shelves 
and drawers provide storage like a tabouret, perfect for technology devices and desk supplies. 
the desktop slides out to allow the user to sit below it. when used with a laptop computer the desktop 
features a horizontal slide out mouse pad. the desk is made from metal and bent plywood.

The chapel is located 64 kilometers from Osorno, Chile, near the Rupanco Lake. Designed by F3 Architectos, it’s a little construction, about 20 square meter, made entirely from wood.

The North Wall is a new arts centre for St Edwards School, Oxford. It is unusual in that it is designed also to operate as a public arts venue for much of the year.

The building, which forms part of the boundary between the school campus and the street, comprises a flexible, 250-seat ‘courtyard’ theatre, a fully equipped drama studio, a dance studio and a visual arts gallery, along with full front and back of house facilities for in house productions and professional touring companies.

The name of the project derives from the ancient, mellow stone boundary wall that runs the entire length of the street elevation and which has been incorporated into the building.

Converted from a grade 2 listed Victorian swimming pool (which was itself built onto the older wall), the new timber-framed theatre uses moveable rostra to allow end-on, in-the-round, traverse and thrust stage settings to be employed. The remaining facilities are housed in a new building that combines with the stone wall and the pitched roofline of the swimming pool to form a coherent, carefully scaled streetscape to the public side and a new courtyard and outdoor performance space to the school side.

The walls and roof of the building are clad in unseasoned English oak shakes (hand-split shingles) and thin vertical slats, designed to bend and twist into organic, patinated surfaces that will vary in colour and texture according to orientation and exposure. The combination of vernacular forms, large frameless windows and a traditional but non-local primary cladding material is intended to appear both familiar and strange in the red brick and clay tile setting of the school and its immediate surroundings, emphasising the purpose of the building as a place for innovation and creativity within a sensitive historic environment.

Glencomeragh House Retreat Center is located in a valley between the Comeragh Mountains and Slievenamon. The campus is bounded by a river to the south, and mature woodland to the west. The Poustinia are located on the Northern incline of the campus and are positioned close to existing plantings of mature broad-leaf trees, which form their entrance and terrace spaces. Each Poustinia is orientated to capture different views over the surrounding countryside and to give a variance in sun light as the day progresses. They are set into and over the hillside, which has been planted as a wild flower meadow with a variety in the mix that will create seasonal blooming. A circular path connects the Poustinia to the Main House and a network of paths and ponds that also lead to riverside and woodland walks. The building’s form creates its own trapped space of the site’s limestone. With the window shutters closed an inner space is created to encourage contemplation and meditation. A day bed opposite the window overlooking the wider landscape, allows rest to be enhanced by the enjoyment of the view. The locally sourced timber cladding in alternating strips of smooth sawn larch and rough sawn douglas fir contrasts with the minimalist interior with its bespoke furniture and suggests the conjunction of the temporal and the transcendent to which the retreat tradition is devoted.

Area — 40sq.m Completed Spring 2005.
