THOT | | Product Name: | THOT | | Product Number | 19980060 | | Product Type | Side Table | | This pedestal table, Pierre Paulin applied to wood, a hard material, the same sensual treatment based on rounded, undulating forms as that which he applied to his celebrated seating made from foam and stretchy fabric. The purity of his remarkably soft design shows to best effect the species used and their traditional usage: black ash or natural walnut. The three feet undulate in an expressive S-shape, uniting beneath the top which they support. Their movement echoes the curve of the latter, which is shaped like a bevelled disc. The whole piece fits neatly into a perfect and almost cubic 50 x 50 space. |
| Designed: | 2011 | | Designer | Pierre Paulin | | Born in Paris in 1927, made his début in the 50's, known for his designs and installations (TV, Thonet, Bertrand Faure, Disderot, Artifort), he brought modernity to the Elysée Palace for President Pompidou in 1971. He designed all the furniture for the official office of François Mitterrand, and renovated the dining room for Jacques Chirac. At the same time, he founded ADSA with two associates, working on industrial projects (Calor, Allibert, Stamp) and brand image (Air France) as well as fitting-out railway stations (Gare de Lyon, Gare de Versailles Rive Gauche).
His pieces figure amongst the collections of numerous museums across the world, and various exhibitions have been dedicated to him in 2007/8. MOMA, New York has enlarged its collection of Paulin pieces. | | Company | Ligne Roset |
