Pierre Paulin

Modernist French designer Pierre Paulin was a pioneer in low-level living. While his oeuvre spans decades of modern materials, techniques, and industrial projects, he’s best known for introducing a new approach to sitting – one that eschewed chair legs and embraced low-slung profiles for easy, laid-back lounging. His bold vision was exemplified in icons like the Pacha Chair and the DWR-exclusive F300 Chair by GUBI, and his designs continue to figure prominently in museums and collections around the world.
