The Utrecht XL armchair designed by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld for Cassina is a furniture icon. Crafted in 1935 for the Metz & Co department store in Amsterdam, the contemporary design is the modern anser to complete comfort. The juxtaposition of right angles ‒ backrest and seat that meet at the floor and armrests that morph into support pieces ‒ are hallmark features, which became a symbol of the Neoplastic movement.
