The Pacha pouf by Gubi revisits the design conceived by the legendary French designer Pierre Paulin in 1975, at a time when contemporary tastes were moving away from post-war austerity to embrace a softer, more dynamic and informal way of life. Conceived as a natural complement to seating, the pouf celebrates roundness and comfort, anticipating a formal language destined to become iconic.
Soft, enveloping and generously padded, Pacha stands out for its rounded forms, which lend it a spontaneous, sculptural elegance. The wide, round seat interacts with the slender metal base that lifts it lightly off the ground, creating a visual balance between volume and suspension. With creations such as this, Paulin was a pioneer of low-level living, a new way of living that brought the body closer to the ground and freed seating from traditional legs.
Thanks to its perfect proportions, slightly raised base and inward-sloping stitching that shapes the upholstery like a tailored suit, the Gubi Pacha pouf has become an icon of contemporary comfort. Its sinuous, organic forms naturally complement the seating in the collection, offering a soft, welcoming and deeply relaxing experience, capable of transforming any space into a haven of well-being.
