Pacha Lounge Chair
Design by Pierre PaulinLegendary French designer Pierre Paulin originally designed the Pacha Lounge Chair in 1975. Paulin designed the chair in harmony with the changing design style of its period, replacing the austerity of post-war design with a new, vigorous approach.Paulin managed to give a real elegance to the rounded forms of the Pacha Lounge Chair by finding the perfect proportions, raising it lightly on its base and tracing in the foam and upholstery with stitching lines inclined inwards. Through pieces like the Pacha Lounge Chair, Pierre Paulin pioneered low-level living; a modern way of living and sitting on the floor, by getting rid of chair legs.With comfort as the constant starting-point in his designs, the curvaceous, whimsical and organic shapes of the Pacha Chair are conceived to serve the body, providing both comfort and cosiness.
DRIFT AMONG THE CLOUDS
In his earliest sketches, Pierre Paulin imagined sitting as a sensation, expressed through rounded forms that seem to float and hold the body with ease. From this idea came a new way of sitting: low, generous, and free from convention. Set within an alpine dreamscape, clouds circle gently, echoing the curves of Pacha. The form drifts between inside and out, lightly touching the ground. Its sculptural volumes feel naturally shaped by time.
What if sitting could feel like a cloud?
Like clouds, Pacha adapts. It forms and reforms to suit different spaces and ways of living. Available both with and without armrests, the Pacha Lounge Chair preserves its sculptural, organic silhouette across configurations, offering exceptional comfort and a cocooning sense of cosiness. More than a place to sit, Pacha creates a feeling of softness and calm. Among the clouds, it brings their quiet comfort back down to earth.
