Pierre Paulin Orange Slice Chair by Artifort

Anyone who sees several Pierre Paulin Orange Slice chairs grouped together cannot fail to be touched by the playfulness of the composition. From different visual angles, the Orange Slice shows several stages of 'curl up'. In fact, the chair seems to change shape every time you look at it.

The Pierre Paulin Orange Slice Chair comprises two completely identical shells of pressed beech, covered with foam on a chromed metal frame. The Pierre Paulin Orange Slice chair was designed in 1960. The Orange Slice Chair is also available with a matching footstool.

Paulin's inspiration came from curved plywood and the shape of orange segments, a striking departure from traditional upright chairs. The overlapping sculptural shells seem to change form as the chair is viewed from different angles, making Orange Slice as compelling from behind as from the front.
