Story
Unpretentious sophistication
Flexform says the two curved metal legs of the Peter armchair cross to form an elegant X and give it unpretentious sophistication. The ample woven cowhide seat and back, it adds, bring airy lightness and a typically outdoor vibe, and the armchair can be coordinated with its eponymous footstool.
In projects
Flexform's project texts show Peter in two Marazzi showrooms by ACPV Architects, in Milan and in Rome, in a home in Turin where its cowhide cord appears among shades of brown, and in a private villa in Karuizawa, Japan.
