M Dining Chair Jab Bonito 075, black frame

Gubi M Dining Chair.

The GUBI M-Chair, designed by Marcel Gascoin in 1937, is a refined dining chair where architectural lines, soft materials, and timeless design come together. With its characteristic floating backrest, compact proportions, and slender matte black metal legs, the chair has an elegant, graphic appearance that fits effortlessly into modern interiors. This version is upholstered in JAB Bonito 075 Sand, a stylish furniture fabric in a warm, natural sand shade. The soft texture and subtle color nuances give the M-Chair an inviting and tactile character. The contrast with the slender, matte black base creates a balanced design in which comfort and minimalist elegance reinforce each other.

A distinctive detail is the upholstered backrest, which rises from the seat structure and appears to float visually. This gives the chair its recognizable architectural identity and creates a surprisingly airy silhouette. The generous upholstery offers pleasant seating comfort, while the compact size makes the M-Chair ideal for both smaller dining spaces and spacious dining tables.

With the reintroduction of this historic design, GUBI brings a special chapter in French design history back to life. The M-Chair is a versatile designer chair that feels just as at home in a sophisticated dining room as in a stylish restaurant, hotel, or hospitality interior.

About the designer – Marcel Gascoin

The French designer Marcel Gascoin (1907–1986) played a significant role in the development of functional modern furniture design. He became best known for his smart, space-saving wooden furniture, which gained a prominent place in French interiors after the Second World War.

The M-Chair from 1937 reveals another side of his design philosophy. With its slender metal construction, refined upholstery, and architectural details, the chair reflects Gascoin's early interest in clear forms, efficient proportions, and optimal user comfort.
