Lightness and precision around the dining table
Seating is one of the clearest expressions of the Bouroullecs' work with Magis. The Pila ash chair reduces the chair to a remarkably slender composition, with an ash seat and backrest, solid ash legs and a die-cast aluminium connection hidden beneath the seat. Its light appearance makes it an elegant option among modern dining chairs, especially in spaces where several seats need to coexist without creating visual weight. As a stackable design, Pila also answers a practical need for flexible interiors. Combined with pieces from Magis Tables & Low Tables, it can create a dining area where materials and proportions remain balanced rather than overly matched.
Tables conceived as places to gather
The Bouroullecs' approach extends naturally into Tables and Bases, where the relationship between surface, structure and surrounding space becomes central. The Tambour table brings a strong material presence to this part of the collection, using polished aluminium to create a distinctive focal point. When selecting a Magis dining table or comparing designer dining tables, however, appearance is only one consideration. The dimensions should allow chairs to move comfortably, preserve circulation around the table and reflect the number of people who use it most often. This relationship between table and seating is what ultimately determines whether a dining space feels generous and natural in everyday life.
A shelving system that grows with the interior
Storage offers the designers another opportunity to think in terms of systems rather than isolated objects. The Steelwood Shelving System modular bookshelf combines the warmth of timber with a structure conceived to organize books, objects and everyday belongings. As a modular shelving system, it can play a different role depending on the room: a more extensive composition can anchor a living area, while a smaller configuration can provide practical storage without overwhelming the architecture. When choosing a modern bookcase, it is useful to consider not only capacity but also what will remain visible. Open shelving works best when storage and display are treated as part of the same composition.
From useful objects to a more complete living space
The Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec x Magis collaboration reaches beyond the larger pieces of furniture into Home Accessories, Consoles and Mirrors and Stools and Benches. These categories make it possible to repeat the same restrained design sensibility at different scales throughout an interior. A modern hallway console can create a useful landing place near an entrance, while stools provide occasional seating without demanding the space of a conventional chair. Rather than filling a room with pieces from a single family, these elements can be mixed with selected Magis home accessories or Magis stools to create a more personal setting connected by proportion, material and function.
Low tables and the art of informal composition
Low tables complete this more relaxed way of furnishing. Unlike a dining table, a Magis low table is usually experienced in close relationship with sofas, armchairs and the objects placed around it. Height, surface area and circulation therefore become particularly important when deciding how to choose a coffee table. A compact design can leave a smaller living room feeling open, while several complementary surfaces can create a flexible arrangement around lounge seating. Paired with pieces from Magis armchairs & lounge, a designer coffee table can help establish an informal centre to the room. Across these different typologies, the Bouroullecs' work for Magis shows how thoughtful furniture can shape an interior quietly, allowing individual objects to connect without making the space feel predetermined.
