Details

Flower is the first ever item of furniture of such large dimensions to be injection moulded as a single piece. Flower is an injection-moulded low chair in transparent polycarbonate clear, complete with splendid seat cushions in Kvadrat fabric (available in a range of colours) or leather. It is also available in a version suitable for outdoor use, again with fabric cushions. This chair is the fruit of a collaboration between legendary French designer Pierre Paulin and Magis: a partnership that began back in 2002, when Paulin had already given up his work as a designer, and left Paris to retire to the Cévennes Mountains, north of Montpellier. Year: 2009.

Born in Paris in 1927, Pierre Paulin made his début in the design field in the 50s (after studying stone carving and clay modelling at the École Camondo in Paris) becoming immediately known for his iconic and innovative designs (such as his sculpture-seats Mushroom, Tongue Chair, Ribbon Chair), which to some degree anticipated the approaching social revolutions through the lifestyles they encouraged. An architect of “imagery”, he created a style, albeit at times unwillingly, deeply marking our everyday life with his sweet, harmonic and evocative shapes and their great innovative content. He was one of the few designers in the world who – from the 50s to the present day – has never ceased to be modern. The last works of his 60-year-long career (Pierre Paulin died in June 2009) are low chair Flower, and the Élysée shelving system, designed for Magis, which are the fruit of a rewarding collaboration begun in 2001.

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.
