In 1954 Lucien Engels designed the holiday home for children ‘Emile Vandervelde II’ in Oostduinkerke, Belgium. It was an amazing overall project: he designed the buildings, the interior and the furniture as well. Engels used powerfull colors for the children. The holiday home was shameless demolished in 1995. Only a few chairs, tables and cabinets were saved… We offer you 2 original chairs, type A. Engels designed those chairs for the dining room for children. The chairs are made of beech wood. The backrests were painted in strong colors and have a asymmetrical opening for the hands. Both chairs are in very good condition with normal signs of age and use. The backrests are repaint in their original color. Bibliography: De Kooning, M., Bekaert, G., Lucien Engels. Architecture Art Design/ Architectuur Kunst Design, 2009, p. 138, p. 182-187.
