Knoll updates Bauhaus-era pieces by iconic greats ? Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer ? in three new striking colors.

Time to save up your pretty pennies ? your favorite Bauhaus classics just got a stunning makeover. Knoll has just launched three ultra-matte finishes ? white, black, and an archival dark red ? across four of its collections designed by two iconic greats: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer. In these new colorways, the reimagined pieces make a new, bold statement with the same innovative spirit of the Bauhaus era.

These tubular steel collections include the MR Chair and MR Tables by Mies, as well as Breuer?s Wassily Chair, Cesca Chairs and Stools, and Laccio Tables.

For the first time ever, these pieces are being commercially produced in these striking new finishes. MR Side Chair \ Photo: Adam Jason Cohen
