About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
Gaudi chair for sale, designed by Vico Magistretti for the Milanese company Artemide, 1970. Artemide marking present under the seat. Six available, sold individually or as a set.
Born from the revolutionary technique of thermoforming a single piece of ABS, the Gaudi is one of the first monobloc chairs in the history of design. Its organic and enveloping shape, its vibrant, saturated red, and its exceptional lightness make it an absolute icon of 1970s Italian space-age design, alongside the creations of Joe Colombo, Giancarlo Piretti, and Marco Zanuso. Stackable, durable, and with an enduring modernity. This piece is part of the permanent collections of the MoMA in New York and the Centre Pompidou.
