Knowlton Library, Red and Blue Chair.
**MADE OF VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL PLANES OF PRIMARY COLORS**
Source(s): We remembered that the chairs were on the slide for Design 200. We quickly looked through the slide show and remembered that we saw the Red and Blue Chair by Gerrit Reitveld. We used the Internet to confirm the sources and to learn a little bit more about it. Ben Hickey is reading: "Monu" and it's about luxury space and urbanism.
