This sculptural got it’s name because it looks like a piece of curved ribbon
and it is now a modern classic. Pierre Poulin
said "A chair should be more than simply functional. It should be
friendly, fun and colourful" and the Ribbon Chair is certainly friendly,
fun and colourful, as well as comfortable and stylish. It has a bold sinuous
shaped seat which is contrasted well with a rectangular metal base. The chair
won an AIA award and is exhibited in the National Gallery of Victoria in
Melbourne and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. There is a matching
ottoman. It is available in many different colours and patterns of fabric.
