JS . THONET – A PERSONAL INTERPRETATION BY JIL SANDER

Jil Sander’s collaboration with Thonet is her first foray into the world of furniture design. With the JS . THONET signature collection, she has taken the most famous tubular steel classics from the late 1920s and put her own stamp on them. For the NORDIC line, the S 64 cantilever chair and the B 97 table set have been done in a warm, matt nickel silver finish. Marcel Breuer designed the S 64 in 1928, during his time in Berlin. The NORDIC reinterpretation of the S 64 features wooden elements with white pigmented oak and a seat and backrest in either leather upholstery or light-coloured canework.
 
Sander’s NORDIC line also features the B 97 table set – the perfect addition to the S 64 cantilever chair. The B 97 table set’s dimensions are reminiscent of Marcel Breuer’s B 9 nesting table. Its altered design, however, offers a practical advantage: the opening on one side allows the tables to be positioned over the edge of a sofa, armchair or bed. They can also be pushed into one another to save space. The tabletop is available in a matt marble glacier hue. These luxurious reinterpretations have been created using a holistic approach, underscoring the exceptional design of the original while sensitively elevating every last detail. All pieces in this collection feature Jil Sander’s engraved signature on the frame.

German fashion designer Jil Sander is known for her purism, combining innovation and minimalism to make a modern statement. Her designs are grounded in technical and aesthetic developments with an effortless, contemporary style, free of gender stereotypes. Jil Sander first emerged on the fashion scene in 1968 when she started her company and designed her first collection. Since then, few others have influenced the world of fashion like Sander. Her eye for detail and materials is legendary. Over the years, she has continued to expand her portfolio. In 1979, she launched JIL SANDER COSMETICS. In 1982, she granted the first Jil Sander licence for glasses and in 1984, the first for handbags. Her company went public in 1989, and in 1996, together with Alain Mikli, she launched JIL SANDER EYEWEAR. The following year she presented her first ever JIL SANDER men’s collection. Sander has also made a name for herself through the pioneering presentation of her products. Her advertising campaigns, beauty product packaging and the design of her flagship stores have all emphatically thrown convention to the wind. For the design of her stores, she collaborated with New York architect Michael Gabellini, resulting in futuristic rooms filled with innovative material decisions and avant-garde lighting. Her flagship store in Paris – opened in 1993 at Rue Avenue Montaigne No. 50 – became a pilot project for more than 80 stores worldwide. In 1995, she founded JIL SANDER AMERICA INC., expanding into the United States and opening her flagship store in New York City. During that same year, she also opened multiple flagship stores in East Asia, including in Tokyo and Seoul. In 1999, the JIL SANDER brand entered into a joint venture with Prada. Sander stepped back from the design world in the year 2000 and left her company. She returned from 2003 to 2005, and again from 2012 to 2013, in the role of creative director. Between 2009 and 2011, Sander designed five +J collections for Uniqlo, followed by three more in the period from 2020 to 2021. Her 2025 collaboration with Thonet was her first foray into the world of furniture design, in which she used her mastery of colours and structures to reinterpret an iconic Bauhaus design. Sander’s redesign of Marcel Breuer’s S 64 cantilever chair reflects her design philosophy, which takes traditional values and classic parameters and gives them a contemporary twist. Using a delicate balance of the perfect materials and colours, Jil Sander has given Thonet’s tubular steel classics a new sensual quality and lent them fresh appeal. Jil Sander is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, the International Linen Council Fil d’Or award (Italy), the Designer of the Year award from the FECJ Institute (Japan), the Brit Insurance Fashion Award from the Design Museum in London and the ADC award from the German Art Director Club.
