Vintage stool Bossche school by Dom Hans Van Der Laan, Netherlands 1970s

Minimal, plastic number, architect stools, Jan de Jong, Netherlands, 1970s Rare and amazing stools designed by Dom Hans van der Laan and executed by Jan de Jong. During the reconstruction period after WWII the Dutch architect Jan de Jong and Dom Hans van der Laan collaborated on several architectural projects including the interior furniture. They created an outstanding body of work defining the style of the Bossche School. Jan de Jong was able to translate many of Dom v.d.Laan’s idealised concepts and ideas into pioneering buildings and spaces. They worked in such close collaboration however that it is difficult to discern the individual level of input into the furniture they designed. The artist Wim van Hoof worked with the two architects proposing different colour schemes for their projects. The original olive green surface visible on these tables derived from one of those schemes.
