After creating the Wassily Chair in 1925, Breuer's next breakthrough was his design for the cantilevered chair. Dissatisfied with the previous generation's chair designs, in 1926 he created the B5 chair as "a dramatic antidote to the overstuffed seating of the Edwardian era." Cantilever chairs have no rear legs, and rely for support on the tensile properties of steel tubing, the original material from which they were made. Breuer's brilliant insight was to use non-reinforced steel tubing, thereby creating a free-swinging chair that approached his de-materialist ideal of "sitting on columns of air." The B5 was very radical for its time, although now it seems so logical, both delicate and strong, with very compact proportions. The cantilevered chair was Breuer's greatest commercial success and its design continued to evolve: the frame became lighter, the seat and back more pliant, the lines softer.
