Big Mushroom

An armchair for all times. Sensitive yet strong. Art that is always comfortable. The Big Mushroom^® by Pierre Paulin includes the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Once launched as the F562, and has been re-launched as Big Mushroom^®.

Designer Pierre Paulin distinguished himself with this armchair in the original shape and revolutionary manufacturing technique for the time. The idea for the Mushroom^® came to Pierre Paulin while he was watching women, shaped and sheathed in their swimming suits. He wanted the same thing for a seat. The inspiration can be found in the beautiful curves as well as in the seamless one-piece elastic upholstery.

The Mushroom^® is the first piece of furniture that is manufactured with an seamless one-piece elastic cover method. Its original shape will mark the furniture of the 60s by inspiring many other creations with sculptural forms. The round shapes and comfortable padding are a perfect match with bright colours for an original and trendy effect.
