THE WASSILY CHAIR AND MORE AT d14 STUDIO

At d14 Photography Studio, we believe every detail in a space should contribute to the story. That’s why our studio isn’t just a place to shoot - it’s a curated environment designed to inspire. Among our favorite design elements? The iconic Wassily Chair, a Bauhaus masterpiece that brings instant edge and elegance to any frame.

THE WASSILY CHAIR: TIMELESS MEETS MINIMAL

Designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925, the Wassily Chair (also known as the Model B3) was revolutionary in its use of tubular steel and taut canvas or leather. Inspired by the frame of a bicycle and the modernist movement, it’s both sculpture and seat. At d14, it serves double duty—as a prop and a mood-setter.

The stark lines and open frame make it perfect for portraiture, fashion editorials, or branding shoots that lean modern, artistic, or architectural. Whether it’s a subject lounging in the chair or the chair itself catching a sliver of natural light, it always steals a little of the scene (in the best way possible).

MORE THAN JUST A CHAIR: MODERNISM THOUGHOUT THE STUDIO

The Wassily isn’t alone. At d14, we’ve curated a mix of modern and mid-century furniture pieces that make the space feel more like a design gallery than a typical studio. Think:

  • Hans Wegner-style shell chairs that add organic contrast with their soft curves

  • Mod-inspired end tables, perfect for lifestyle shoots or relaxed interview setups

  • Leather sofa and statement lighting, playing with texture, geometry, and shadow

Each piece was chosen not just for aesthetics, but for its shootability. Our space is a visual playground, with clean lines, intentional contrast, and furniture that knows how to pose.
