A pioneering architect renowned for his use of steel, glass and concrete, Marcel Breuer is often identified as a key figure in the emergence of Brutalism. Designing iconic buildings such as the St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church in Muskegon, the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, Breuer collaborated with many renowned architects, including Bernard Zehrfuss, Pier Luigi Nervi and Walter Gropius.

An iconic designer as well as a talented architect, Marcel Breuer’s creations include the Wassily Chair, the tubular B117 Table and the cantilevered Cesca Chair. Inspired by traditional bicycle handlebars and innovatively crafted using the same techniques as local plumbers, many of Marcel Breuer’s designs feature his iconic tubular steel frame. Renowned across the world for their innovative materials and ground breaking forms, Breuer’s creations are housed in permanent collections in some of the world’s most prestigious museums.

Originally known as the B4 Chair and designed by Marcel Breuer in 1926, the D4E Folding Outdoor Chair is crafted today by esteemed manufacturer Tecta and is exclusively available in the UK at The Conran Shop.
