Design Konstantin Grcic, 2003
Treated aluminum, polyester powder coat, concrete
Made in Italy by Magis

Fabulous, original and eyecatching are just a few words to describe the beautiful design of the Chair One by Konstantin Grcic. Through his minimalist industrial style, he has constructed a form that's statuesque, elegant and hard to forget.

The public seating system consists of a clear coat concrete base with a die-cast and powder coated aluminum seat. Available with variable seating options and optional concrete table. The Chair One family is extremely versatile, and suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

Konstantin Grcic was born in Munich, Germany in 1965. After training as a cabinet maker at Parnham College in England he studied design at the Royal College of Art in London from 1988-1990. Konstantin Grcic creates industrial products widely described as pared down, simple, minimalist. What sets him apart from the minimalism in fashionable currency today is that he defines function in human terms, combining maximum formal strictness with considerable mental acuity and humor.

3-seat bar with two concrete bases: 68.9" L | 11.8" h

Konstantin Grcic

Konstantin Grcic (b. 1965, Munich) trained as a cabinet maker at Parnham College in England and studied design at the Royal college of Art in London from 1988 to 1990. He then founded the KGID office (Konstantin Grcic Industrial Design) in 1991, which led to commissions from leading firms in furniture, design, and architecture. Grcic creates industrial products widely described as pared down, simple, essential, or minimalist. His take on minimalism differs from the current fashion in its function in human terms, combining maximum formal strictness with considerable mental acuity and humor.
