Icon-Icon Opinion :
An iconic sofa made from the wooden slats wrapped in foam and covered in leather were first seen in presidential apartment of François Mitterand.. Pierre Paulin’s Pumpkin owes a lot of success to the former president who made him his favorite designer!
Name of the product : Pumpkin
Designer : Pierre Paulin
Description : For the very first time, Pierre Paulin’s 1971 design for seating for the private apartments of Claude & Georges Pompidou at the Elysée Palace is being put into large-scale production. Pumpkin is characteristic of Paulin’s revolutionary style, as initiated at the end of the 1950’s, and as its name suggests is evocative of a giant pumpkin, welcoming the user with its protectively voluptuous – and voluptuously protective – shell. Resisting its appeal is an impossibility!
Materials : Polyether foam
