DAS KRAGSTUHLMUSEUM / TECTA-ARCHIV LAUENFÖRDE IST DAS LETZTE WERK DES BRITISCHEN ARCHITEKTEN PETER SMITHSON. MIT SEINER FRAU ALISON ENTWARF ER IN LAUENFÖRDE EINEN INDUSTRIE – LANDSCHAFTSPARK, BESTEHEND AUS DEN TECTA-WERKHALLEN UND DEN 4 MUSEUMSGEBÄUDEN.
In 1981 TECTA opened in the city centre of Lauenförde, a few kilometres from Kassel, a ‘Stuhlmuseum’, based on Axel Bruchhaeuser’s private collection. In the museum Axel has unique pieces as the Andersen chair from 1953, which is a strong claim (or even proves!) that Verner Panton copied it for his now very much hyped Panton chair. Junker pieces which inspired Marcel Breuer, -whilst working there-, for his tabular steel chairs.
