Reissued on the occasion of the centenary of the birth of Verner Panton by Karakter in collaboration with Cassina, the Peacock Oslo chair in pistacchio is much more than a rebirth: it is proof that certain visions of design resist time with absolute insolence. Iconic piece of avant-garde Scandinavian design, it preserves in this edition all the original complexity of the project, this polished stainless steel mesh whose light transparency and industrial manufacturing define an unparalleled aesthetic, somewhere between inhabited sculpture and pop object. In its pistacchio shade, it plays the card of a soft and luminous color that dialogues with the metallic brilliance of the structure to compose a tune both cheerful and sophisticated, contemporary without seeking to be so. Its truncated conical base and its large crown with seven cushions give it a generosity of seat that is always surprising, as the visual lightness of the whole leaves little to guess the comfort housed there. As sovereign in a residential lounge with design references assumed as in a reception area, a boutique hotel or an executive office that cultivates audacity, the Peacock Oslo effortlessly asserts itself as the focal point around which everything else is organized. You don’t choose the Peacock armchair: you give in to it.
