280 - Pierre Gonalons

Pierre Gonalons See Through Armchair Solid fir and plywood frame, polyurethane foam. Satin-finished brass trim. Upholstered in Toundra fabric by Métaphores. 2019 H74 W82 D76 cm With its title, See Through, this armchair suggests a play on transparency and the gaze. Pierre Gonalons combines a solid fir and plywood frame with a satin-finished brass band—a refined detail that accentuates the chair’s silhouette, in the spirit of 20th-century French interior designers who placed great emphasis on finishes. The Toundra fabric by Métaphores, with its wool-like texture, enhances the piece’s visual appeal. The armchair is part of a design exploration that elegantly reinterprets the legacy of 1970s Italian design, from Gavina to Takahama.
