Gerrit Rietveld’s Steltman Chair Reissued
Gerrit Rietveld reissued, a virtual reality gender swap, NASA in art and more in our weekly look at the web
During his lifetime, Dutch furniture designer and architect Gerrit
Reitveld became known for his involvement in The Netherlands’ De
Stijl modernist movement. One of his most iconic designs is the Steltman Chair, originally designed
for a Dutch jeweler in 1963. Made of three self-supporting
right angle elements, the chair is a true wonder—and is now
being produced again for the first time in over 50 years by his grandson, Egbert Rietveld.
