Piere Paulin:

In 1958, he became the designer for Artifort where he created a series of sculptural chairs with an inner structure of steel tubing, covered in foam and fabric. In 1968, Paulin collaborated with Le Mobilier.
“A chair should be more than simply functional. It should be friendly, fun and colorful.” – Pierre Paulin
