Vico Magistretti stands out as a master of elegance, innovation, and functional simplicity. Among his many contributions to the world of furniture design, Magistretti's chairs are some of the most enduring and beloved creations — celebrated for their minimalism, comfort, and thoughtful engineering.
Magistretti had a unique ability to blend traditional craftsmanship with modernist ideals. His designs, including the famed Carimate Chair, reflect a sensitivity to both form and function. The Carimate, with its rustic yet refined woven seat and solid wood frame, bridges rural aesthetics with urban sophistication. And is still so fashionable, functional and comfortable.
Today, Magistretti’s chairs are collectors’ items and continue to inspire contemporary designers. Whether you're a design enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates beautiful, functional furniture, a Carimate chair is more than just a place to sit — it’s a piece of design history.
