GranTorino is an armchair that manages to combine compact, well-calibrated volumes, which minimise its overall dimensions, with extremely comfortable seats. The structure is in tubular metal with woven elastic belts. The backrests and armrests are made from birch plywood panel. The seat is padded with variable density CFC-free polyurethane foam and pressed felt. The backrest cushions are padded with goose down and have separate horizontal chambers to provide varied, ergonomic comfort. The feet are in titanium-coloured aluminium. The GranTorino armchair can be upholstered entirely in Pelle Frau® leather or in the options that combine multiple materials.
The world of saddlery, a realm of luxury craftsmanship and expert processing, is Jean-Marie Massaud’s inspiration for GranTorino, a collection which, in its most original and precious version, pairs saddle-leather with Pelle Frau® leather or fabric. The saddle-leather, cut and moulded by hand, closely follows the lines and geometries of the seating. Precision and complex workmanship also for the slim high armrest and the low armrest, also available with a little compartment that houses an elegant natural oak tray.

DESIGNED BY
Jean-Marie Massaud
Born in Toulouse in 1966, Jean-Marie Massaud graduated in 1990 from Les Ateliers, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle, Paris. He began to work both in Asia and in France, finally opening his own office in Paris in 1994. Since than, he has dedicated himself to industrial and furniture design, building important relationships with brands such as Authentics, Baccarat and Magis. His collaboration with Marc Berthier and his work in the field of town planning led him towards design and architecture. He is concerned with design in various contexts, industrial products and furniture. His contextual approach centres on research into the essential, within which the individual remains the centre of attention.
