What makes a space truly memorable? Is it the colors, the furniture, or the little details that make you smile every time you walk into the room? We believe the most inspiring interiors are the ones that embrace a sense of fun, where iconic design becomes part of everyday living. Whether you are a designer creating expressive spaces, a collector searching for timeless pieces, or a family introducing children to thoughtful design, playful objects have a way of bringing people together. Playful design is not just meant to be admired. It is meant to be lived with, shared, and enjoyed every day. Here at CWC Interiors, we have curated five icons from Vitra and Magis that bring creativity and character into every space.

Vitra Panton Chair New Height

by Verner Panton

A classic in the history of furniture design. The comfort of this chair results from the combination of a cantilever structure with an anthropomorphic shape and a slightly flexible material. It can be used individually or in groups and is suited for indoor and outdoor environments. It received numerous international design awards and is represented in the collections of many prominent museums.

Magis Spun

by Thomas Heatherwick

A functional chair formed from a single profile rotated through 360 degrees. When upright Spun is a sculptural vessel and it is only when it is lent on its side that the playful possibilities of its form come to light. Spun allows the sitter to swivel in a circular rocking motion, including being able to rotate in a complete circle.

Vitra Eames Elephant RE

by Charles and Ray Eames

A scaled-down edition crafted from recycled post-industrial plastic, the Eames Elephant RE can be displayed as a decorative accent, enjoyed as a playful companion in a child's room, or used outdoors. Its distinctive silhouette and oversized ears continue to delight both children and adults alike.

Magis Puppy Dalmatian

by Eero Aarnio

A charming reinterpretation of man's best friend. With its simple, rounded silhouette of a head, body, and legs, Puppy transforms a familiar companion into an imaginative object. Made from durable yet lightweight polyethylene, it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, offering endless opportunities for play. It is available in a range of vibrant finishes, including the distinctive Dalmatian edition.

Vitra Sunflower Clock

by George Nelson

A timeless expression of George Nelson's playful approach to everyday objects. The Sunflower Clock combines sculptural form with practical function, featuring a radiant composition that serves as both a reliable timepiece and a captivating wall accent. Equipped with a high quality quartz movement, it brings warmth and timeless elegance to a wide range of interiors.

Playful living begins with objects that inspire connection, creativity, and fun every day. From sculptural seating to whimsical accessories, these iconic designs continue to enrich homes around the world. At CWC Interiors, you can explore these pieces from Vitra and Magis, available online and in-store, and bring home an icon that reflects your own way of living.
