SE69 Dining Chair Upholstery Group:Fabric D creative director Knut Bendik HumlevikDescription Martin Visser designed the SE69 in 1959 for 't Spectrum, the Dutch modernist furniture maker where he served as head designer for two decades. His guiding principle was furniture with as little material and as simple shapes as possible and the SE69 is that idea distilled: a square tubular steel frame, powder coated black, straight armrests in solid oak or walnut, and upholstered seat and back. Sixty odd years on, Pastoe still makes it.
