magis officina stool
"Wrought iron - the shaping of iron by hammering - is one of the oldest techniques for making objects. For the Magis Officina collection, we wanted to work with this ancient fabrication process and give it a new visual language. As structural elements, they can create furniture of extreme sophistication, refinement and harmony. The surface of wrought iron is alive and imperfect, which lends the objects a special vibration. By reflecting the random, mechanical traces of the tools that gave them shape, these pieces bring a breath of fresh air to the industrial scheme." -Bouroullec brothers
With their Officina Stool, designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec take the ancient craft of drop-forged iron and create a material language that belongs to the current moment. The wrought iron legs are entwined together in a solid construction, yet they portray a delicate balance and minimal presence. They are matched with a polypropylene seat available in several colors to suit a range of contemporary interiors.
The two brothers, Ronan and Erwan, have been working together since 1999. Their collaboration is a constant dialogue, nourished by their single identities and strived towards a common goal. Today, the Bouroullec brothers work with numerous manufacturers such as Vitra, Cappellini, Issey Miyake, Magis, Ligne Roset, Habitat and the Kréo Gallery. They were named "Creator of the Year" in 2002, elected "designer of the year" in 2003 and have won multiple other awards. Their creations have been exhibited in many collective or solo exhibitions and are part of some permanent museum collections around the world.
The Officina stool features a bar-height frame in wrought iron, available in a galvanized or painted black finish. The seat is polypropylene offered in dark green, black or metallized grey. Please call the hive showroom with any questions: 1-866-663-4483.
