Immanenz Prototype Chair, Germany 1994 – One-Off Piece
A truly exceptional one-of-a-kind prototype chair, presented in Germany in 1994, and a remarkable example of sculptural late 20th-century design. The Immanenz Chair blurs the boundary between furniture and art, with a bold, organic form that commands attention from every angle.
The base is crafted from laminated glulam wood, expertly layered to create a flowing, almost geological pattern—each curve revealing the natural rhythm of the material. This substantial, monolithic form grounds the piece, while the tan leather seat and backrest introduce warmth and comfort, balancing the visual weight with refined softness.
Designed as a prototype and never put into production, this chair remains a unique collector’s piece, with provenance linked to a German furniture exhibition in 1994. The only reference to its creator is the original brass plaque, adding to its enigmatic and exclusive character.
