Details

The Aviva series is a collection of folding chairs designed by Marc Berthier at the end of the 70’s in response to the mobility of the urban lifestyle. It was manufactured by Magis for 20 years, and restyled in 2010. Aviva chairs fold completely flat, and are designed for high-standard industrial manufacturing, with just 2 sections of beech wood forming the frames, which are joined together by small metal parts. The specific kinematics of the folding seat demand absolute precision, of a kind rarely required in woodworking. Year: 1979/2010.

Designer and architect Marc Berthier was one of the first designers to collaborate with Magis, designing numerous objects and collections for the company: in fact he has been collaborating with us for over thirty years. His work mainly revolves around industrial product design, and is spiced with international flavours. His creations have been selected for the permanent collections of the Musée National d’Art Moderne, the Arts-Décoratifs Museum and the Fond National d’Art Contemporain in France, and the MoMA in New York. In 2002 he founded Eliumstudio in Paris, together with his daughter Élise, Pierre Garner and Frédéric Lintz, joined later by Anne Klepper.

Magis was established in 1976 in the north east of Italy, one of Europe's most dynamic industrial areas. Its success is based on the desire to provide a broad swathe of users with access to high functional and technological quality products for the home, developed in partnership with major international designers, with a vision of the resulting products that is ethical and poetic as well as aesthetic. 

Magis products are dedicated to their international public and are all 100% “Made in Italy”: a guarantee of high quality, in line with the firm's tradition, which has developed from its craftsmanship and cultural roots, through the evolving styles and industrial growth of the eighties and nineties, and continues to comprise one of the company's greatest and most valuable assets.
