Paso Doble Chair, Set of 2 by Magis designed by Stefano Giovannoni
At A Glance: It is generally accepted that there are gray areas in all of life - but not so with the Paso Doble Chair. You get black and white, and they look really good. The Paso Doble Chair is an exercise in curves, and with a mesh back that lets you breathe and an aluminum frame that doesn't get in your way, this truly is a great chair.
What's To Like:
A beautiful mesh chair is hard to find. This curvaceous beauty is one you'll be proud to sit in poolside - or on the deck.
Don't forget that the Paso Doble Chair's attractive qualities make it versatile as well. It's really an outdoor chair that has the looks to bring indoors.
What's Not to Like: You could pay much less for a mesh chair, and there's no denying that. The choice is between refined modern quality and cost savings.
The Bottom Line: The Paso Doble Chair has the advantage of being versatile, attractive, and comfortable. That's called a trifecta, folks.

Stefano Giovannoni says that the most important influence in his life was during the late 1970s, when he attended the University of Florence. There, he encountered the concept of "radical architecture," which left its stamp on the expression of Italian design. The rules were gone, and he could see more possibilities for his creations. Since beginning his first studio, "King-Kong," in the 1980s, he established a reputation based on his cleverness and eye for communication, he has gone on to see many of his products, including the Paso Doble Chair, become commercial success stories for a diverse variety of manufacturers and applications. Having been a professor at several universities, Giovannoni is content now to advise up-and-coming designers to look further than the easy solutions and to focus on research. His work appears in several major museums throughout the world.
Magis is an Italian furniture company that puts a high emphasis on design and technological innovation. Its products often find themselves on the cutting edge of both design and structural composition - many times almost as a byproduct of the designer's standards of what is good and necessary in a useful chair or table. Magis seeks to create items that can be used in any room of the home (indoors or outdoors) and add beauty anywhere. Founded in 1976 and continuing to operate as a factory-free organization, Magis uses local contractors and outsources its manufacturing to create greater flexibility in the design process.
