Collection Story
Origin
The Pedrali and Patrick Jouin partnership dates to 2013, when Ester was the first armchair; the collection grew from it, and 2023 marked ten years together.
Design Language
Ester is a mix of elegance, ergonomics and functionality, a precious monolith with refined die-cast aluminium legs and soft, graceful lines, its seat in polyurethane foam on elastic belts. Ester Lounge, which won the Best of Year Award 2024 from Interior Design magazine as best contract lounge seating, adds softer and more generous shapes and keeps the characteristic oval backrest of the collection.
