Gaulino dining chair by Oscar Tusquets, Spanish contemporary design natural ash
About the Item
The Gaulino Chair is one of the best designs by Oscar Tusquets and has become an iconic Spanish design. Made exclusively from wood and leather, the name comes from the influences that inspired the designers: Antoni Gaudí and Carlo Mollino.
A Re-edition, improved, of the historic Gaulino chair which, designed in 1987, was selected in the Adi-Fad Industrial Design Prize of 1989 and in Iberdiseño in 1990. Since then it has always been a part of the retrospective Spanish Design exhibitions and figures in publications, all of which has made it a point of reference in 20th century design in Spain.
MATERIALS AND FINISHES
Frame in natural varnished solid ash, ash stained black or coral red (RAL 3016).
Seat upholstered in natural hide, black hide or toasted hide.
Born in Barcelona in 1941, Oscar Tusquets graduated as an architect in 1965 from Barcelona’s Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura and was a member of Studi Per, together with Pep Bonet, Cristian Cirici, Lluís Clotet, and Mireia Riera. In 1972, they founded BD together, and Tusquets set about designing furniture and other objects, which would be recognised by the Spanish National Design Award.
A number of his pieces appear in renowned museum collections, such as the MoMA in New York and the Centre George Pompidou in Paris. He has also been honoured with the Medalla de Oro al Mérito en las Bellas Artes [Gold Medal for Merit in the Fine Arts], the insignia of Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres [Knight of the Order of the Arts and Letters] and the Creu de Sant Jordi [Cross of Sant Jordi]. Since the ‘90s, he has published books on a wide range of design-related topics.
