Biography
Mart Stam 1899 - 1986
Mart(inus) Adrianus Stam The Dutch architect and urban planner Mart Stam was
born in Purmered just before the turn of the century. In his early years, he studied
drawing at the Royal School for Advanced Studies in Amsterdam. Securing
employment with the famed J. J. P. Oud, he became a strong contributor to the
firm of Grandre Moliere Verhagen & Kok, and to it’s Functionalist leanings. In the
mid twenties Stam traveled and worked in both Germany and Switzerland, and in
1927 he landed in Dessau, where he studied urban planning at the Bauhaus. But
prior to this period at the Bauhaus, Mart Stam produced one of the great
cornerstones of 20th Century seating design. In 1924, he developed a chair for his
wife made from lengths of straight tube and gas fitter’s joints. He struggled with this
design concept for two years, and in 1926 announced it to his peers at the Stuttgart
Weissenhofsiedlung Exhibition. This marked the birth of the tubular steel cantilevered
chair, prompted Mies Van der Rohe to develop his famed cantilevered chairs, and
inspired Marcel Breuer to develop perhaps the most well known cantilevered chair
design in the world today. Stam stayed on at the Bauhaus as a guest lecturer, and
in 1939 he became the Director of Applied Art at the Amsterdam Institute of Art. In
1950 he was appointed the Directorship of the Advanced Institute of Art in Berlin.
Throughout his career, Mart Stam produced a range of substantial architectural
projects. The Theosophical Church in Amsterdam, the Van Nelle Tobacco Factory
in Rotterdam, and the famed "Cloud Pillar" project are among his most well known.
But, it was for one cantilevered chair design produced early in his career that Mart
Stam will best be remembered. |
