magis rocky
Design Marc Newson, 2012
Polyethylene, natural hemp rope
Made in Italy by Magis
Here is a way of sitting without ever being still: Rocky, the unbeatable, indestructible rocking horse. The second of Marc's designs for children, Rocky is a modern take on a traditional object, a pop version taking its character loosely from medieval jousting horses.
The parallelogram motion mimics the movement of a traditional rocking horse. It is made from rotationally molded polyethylene chosen for both its durability and recyclability.

Marc Newson
Marc Newson incorporates a design style known as biomorphism with smooth flowing lines, translucency and tends to have an absence of sharp edges.
Magis believes a design must not only be good, it should also satisfy a criteria of aesthetic functionalism. Magis combines quality production with a design sensibility that preserves the tradition of Italian made craftsmanship.
