Pierre Paulin trained to become a sculptor in Paris but an unfortunate
accident left one of his hands partially impaired.
He turned to furniture design and designed numerous design classics for
the Dutch
furniture manufacturer Artifort.

Pierre Paulin was able to infuse the
free-flowing curves of sculpture into his fabulous chairs.
