Composed of interlocking perforated triangles and a solid concrete base, this version of the iconic Magis Chair One embodies Konstantin Grcic’s mastery of jaw-dropping architectural and sculptural forms. The chair’s futuristic design takes full advantage of die-casting to create the precise network of geometric shapes that make up the seat shell. The rounded concrete base anchors the design, its weight and presence contrasting with the empty space of the seat.
