Pacha Outdoor Lounge Chair

Pacha Outdoor Lounge Chair by Pierre Paulin for Gubi.

The inviting Pacha lounge chair was originally designed by Pierre Paulin in 1975, and it replaced the austerity of post-war design with a more organic and curvaceous approach.

The Pacha lounge chair has a generously rounded outline and perfectly considered proportions, offering high levels of comfort. With pieces like Pacha, Paulin was an advocate of low-level living by getting rid of chair legs and Pacha is only slightly raised off the ground using a small base.

Now its signature comfort and unique design are available in an outdoor version. Featuring a special water-resistant breathable membrane that allows fast drying after exposure to water, the outdoor Pacha range offers the same comfort as the iconic indoor version. The base of the outdoor version is constructed from moisture-resistant plywood to deliver improved protection in humid conditions and includes a full swivel mechanism in stainless steel. Lounge outside as soon as the rain clears with the optional removable rain cover for additional protection from weather elements.

Pierre Paulin (b.1927) studied at Ecole Camondo Design School in Paris and thereafter joined Marcel Gasoin’s studio. His own work was recognised at the Salon des Arts Menagers exhibition in 1953 and he began a longstanding association with Dutch firm Artifort. His designs for Artifort were strong expressions in form using new textiles and foam technology.
