These Saarinen Grasshopper chairs were recently reupholstered with Knoll fabrics. The bent plywood nesting table between the chairs was designed by Breuer in 1935, is currently produced by Isokon in London, and was the first furnishing purchased for the restoration. "We used Ezra Stoller's period photography and the registrar's list from MoMA to see what was originally in the house," says Cynthia Altman, Kykuit's Senior Curator. "Luckily because mid-century has become so popular these days pieces are being reissued." Photo by Diana Budds. Photo 5 of 19 in Restoring Breuer's House in Garden
