Paulistano Steel Mesh Armchair

A cult chair designed by Paulo Mendes da Rocha, one of the great masters of architecture, declined in a Mesh version, all steel. Very comfortable, the Paulistano is a design classic with a timeless elegance. This 100% stainless steel version retains the flexibility and suppleness of the original chair, with the metal mesh replacing leather or textile.

Designed in 1957 by Paulo Mendes da Rocha, the Paulistano armchair was part, for many years, of the living rooms of the Athletic Club of São Paulo. The constructivist concept of the structure, made up from a single bended steel bar, and its cover, made up of leather, cotton, or steel, procure to this armchair an esthetical lightness and an incomparable comfort.

Manufactured in small series within the last years, the Paulistano armchair emerges from the past to show that the purity and the elegance of its lines are timeless: a masterpiece.

The Paulistano lounge chair has been included in the famous permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art of New York (MoMA).
