The Maralunga lounge chair by Vico Magistretti for Cassina, designed in 1973, is a defining icon of Italian modernism, distinguished by its quietly radical approach to form and comfort. Its compact, cubic volume is softened by generous padding, while the adjustable backrest introduces a subtle transformation of both profile and posture.
Upholstered in rich red leather, the chair acquires a striking visual presence, with the material’s depth and sheen amplifying its sculptural clarity. The bold color accentuates the tension between its strict geometry and inviting softness, a balance central to Magistretti’s design language.
At once restrained and expressive, the Maralunga embodies a new typology of seating, where adaptability, comfort, and formal precision coexist in effortless harmony.
