Artifort Model 030 - 1964 - Herman Bakker.
Herman Bakker (1915-1988) is widely regarded as the post-war reconstruction architect of the Netherlands. In addition to his designs in Rotterdam, such as the Zuidplein shopping center and the Maastoren flats, he was asked to design a new hotel in Eindhoven. Hotel de Cocagne… which in English means ‘hotel of plenty’.
This was commissioned by Philips and intended to accommodate important Philips guests who were to want for nothing.
Besides the exterior, Bakker also designed the interior, down to parts of the furniture.
Artifort, Model 030, was designed by him and served as a chair in the restaurant of Hotel Cocagne. It was a commissioned project for Artifort, although they did publish Model 030 in their 1964 catalog.
That is according to the Artifort (overview) book from 1990 by Ewald Jamin et al. (publisher 010).
The chairs carry the history of the reconstruction, the rise of the Philips group, and the growing importance of Eindhoven. These are very rare and unique items.
These chairs came into possession in 1992.
Around 2003, the chairs were reupholstered and restored. The original screws were used for this. After all these years, the leather has sustained some signs of wear, but it is still completely intact.
Only one chair still has the Artifort/Wagemans Maastricht plaque.
