Tearsheet
Vico Magistretti, ‘Carimate’ armchair, model '892', stained beech, rush, Italy, design 1963

The ‘Carimate’ chair is one of Vico Magistretti’s most famous chairs. Originally designed in a red color for the ‘Carimate Golf Club’ in Italy (1960), a place that Magistretti himself designed. This specific model was produced for a long time and by four different manufacturers. Since Magistretti was very confident about the success of this model, he requested a patent for the construction and the joints in 1963. Due to the architectural, open frame the ‘Carimate’ chair has a strong expression. The angular frame has two curved armrests that add a dynamic appeal. Where the frame meets the seat, Magistretti added a distinct detail to the frame which gets a little wider at this point.
