Paulistano Leather Armchair in Terracotta Leather and Polished Stainless Steel

About the Item

The Paulistano armchair, designed in 1957 by renowned architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha, is a design classic known for its timeless elegance and comfort. Originally part of the living rooms of the Athletic Club of São Paulo, this cult leather armchair embodies minimalist lines and a constructivist structure, made from a single bent steel bar. Its spring steel frame is available in its original phosphated carbon steel finish, polished stainless steel, or covered with a durable epoxy paint. The seat is crafted from luxurious full-grain vegetable leather, which develops a rich patina over time, enhancing its sensual appeal. Whether placed in a living room or bedroom, the Paulistano fits effortlessly into any interior, offering both aesthetic lightness and unmatched comfort. This masterpiece has been included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, a testament to the enduring purity and elegance of its design.
