Plato Armchair in die-cast aluminium, by Jasper Morrison.
Magis presents a new chair in die-cast aluminium: Plato, by Jasper Morrison. As the designer tells us, ‘as a rule, special things are less useful than normal things’.
As Jasper Morrison declares, “a fully recyclable chair, with extruded aluminium legs and a die-cast aluminium shell: a technology that enables us to create shells that are both slimmer and stronger than their plastic counterparts. There is also a version with armrests”
Jasper Morrison was born in London in 1959, he studied design at
Royal College of Art and at the HdK in Berlin. Editor of the Design Year Book
1999 with a passion for the history of design, Morrison designs for Cappellini,
Vitra, Magis, Flos, Rosenthal and Sony.
