A collectible design book of the hundred chairs from the twentieth century that you need to know.

100 chairs from 100 designers, chosen and painted by illustrator Karin Meenen. More than just a place to sit, chairs are a cultural obsession, with people fighting in online auctions over Parker Knoll and Perriand. But beyond the names you know are other remarkable chairs, that show developments of design, form and materials. 100 Chairs is a visual archive of the century, with each chair accompanied by information stating the year, designer, movement and material. This is a book to be flicked through and enjoyed and referenced, whether you are a design expert or interested novice.

This book has a global scope, and features chairs from designers across the world, including:

  • Butaque chair by Cuban-Mexican designer Clara Porset
  • Paimio Sessel, by Finnish designer Alvar Aalto
  • Next Door Cafe chair by Sri Lankan designer Geoffrey Bawa
  • Superleggera by Italian designer Gio Ponti
  • Eames lounger by North American designers Ray and Charles Eames
