The iconic
Pacha armchairwas designed by
Pierre Paulin in 1975 and is now reissued by
Gubi. Pierre Paulin is one of the greatest exponents of French design and has designed some of the most famous armchairs in contemporary design, which are exhibited in the most prestigious museums. The aesthetic of the
Pacha armchair by
Gubi is inspired by the shape of clouds.
Pierre Paulin imagined a new form of design, replacing post-war austerity with a new, much more vigorous approach.
The
Pacha armchairby
Gubi thus perfectly illustrates the mutation of 60s design, moving towards a less rigid, more festive and relaxed aesthetic.
Pierre Paulin has succeeded in giving real elegance to the rounded, whimsical shapes of
the Pacha armchairby
Gubi by finding the perfect proportions. The lines of the chair's stitching add to its elegance. The low, rounded foam seat is slightly raised at the base, where the stitching accentuates the silhouette. The base, which lacks the classic four-legged legs, gives this Pacha armchair a very contemporary look that will bring a breath of modernity to any living room or bedroom. Pierre Paulin was also one of the first to do away with the legs of armchairs, introducing a new way of life in which people sit closer to the ground.
The result is a modern and durable armchair that offers comfort and warmth. For the Pacha armchair, Pierre Paulin wanted to place great importance on the notion of comfort. Indeed, the
Pacha armchair by
Gubi is the result of lengthy research into the notion of modern comfort. This work is perfectly in tune with the desire for comfort in the bodies of the 60s. Its all-cotton padding makes the Pacha armchair very pleasant to the touch thanks to its softness, making it extremely comfortable. Pacha is a unique model that brings life and character to every style of interior.
Gubi has expanded the collection by adding the
Pacha armchair with armrests, the
Two to five-seater Pacha sofa.
The
Pacha armchair is upholstered in a superb wool and viscose bouclé fabric, inspired by precious astrakhan furs, with a velvety feel, comfortable and thick.
Pacha is also available in a wide range of upholstery fabrics with a swivel base in original pearl gold and matt black.
