The MAG Collection, produced by the Danish brand MAZŌ, presents a range of seating options that distinguish themselves through a deliberate celebration of structural honesty. The silhouettes include a dining chair, barstool, and counter chair.
A key feature in the designs of the MAG Collection is the joinery, which MAZŌ left visibly exposed to function as an integral element of the overall aesthetic. Designed by Magnus Sangild and Vúóng Kim Daniel, the collection draws its formal language from the dense, tapering silhouette of a succulent leaf to achieve a compelling balance between organic softness and controlled, precise lines that render the piece as much a sculptural object as a functional seat.
Consumers can choose between two leg options — solid oak for those who appreciate material honesty and a warm, grounded presence, or powder-coated steel for a leaner, more architectural counterpoint.
