    Description

    This piece was designed by Paul Touillon from a single sheet of steel, folded on both sides to elevate what then becomes the seating structure. A slight twist of the side panels inwards gives the object its desired steadiness and transforms the metal into a still, elegant piece of fabric. Each steel sheet comes with its own manufacturing defects, giving it its unique identity. Appearances may therefore vary compared to the displayed pictures.

    About Modan Visit Showroom →

    Paul Touillon, designer and founder of Modan, embraces minimalism as his core design principle. Each piece starts with a single sheet of metal, shaped through a series of folds—no fasteners or mechanical parts are needed. The metal itself forms the structure, silhouette, and beauty of the object, giving it both identity and space. For Paul, the material becomes everything. This is the essence of Modan.
