OSCAR TUSQUETS
This stool is, alongside the entire collection, a
testament to Oscar Tusquets’ creativity and
the influence of Gaulino as a whole. Inspired
by Antonio Gaudi and Carlo Mollino, Tusquets
created 'Gaulino' in 1987. It was an industrially
hand-crafted chair with a contoured wooden
frame, slender tapering legs and smooth rich
leather. The artisanal chair became a modern
icon of 20th-century design. The stool has a
concave seat, avoiding the sitter from slouching
their back. Its legs are reminiscent of the Gaulino
and its backless frame gives the stool a lightness
in the home. It can be taken around, tucked under
a table or fitted between furnishings. The seat is
practical, referential and stylish. It’s the Gaulino
again, just in a different light.
