Born in Turin, Italy, Carlo Mollino was the son of Eugenio Mollino, an engineer. As he grew up, Carlo Mollino became interested in a variety of topics that were as outrageous as his art, such as design, architecture, the occult, and race cars. He was once credited as saying, "Everything is permissible as long as it is fantastic." That credo was certainly reflected throughout his body of work. Mollino's architecture and furniture are famous for their ability to enable occupants to manipulate volumes at a whim. Carlo Mollino died in 1973, while still working.
The unique design of the Ardea Armchair pays tribute to its designer, Carlo Mollino. It showcases a black painted wood base with a steel frame and self-extinguishing polyurethane foam upholstery. The removable external cover is available in several fabric options and will be a delightful addition to your home or office.

Zanotta:

In the late 1980s Aurelio Zanotta gave the following explanation of his success. "During the 1950s and 1960s the furniture and furnishing accessories industry was bubbling over with creativity. Some firms which currently are leaders in the industrial design field and have gained international stature were sharp enough then to grasp the crux of the design and manufacturing problem. It was possible to produce both profits and culture, at the same time."
Over time, Zanotta has backed a multitude of experimental endeavors and cultural undertakings to promote the development and dissemination of concepts tied to the creation of household artifacts. Zanotta participates yearly in countless exhibitions and shows in the sector of industrial design, art, architecture and fashion. This intense cultural promotion of the collection boosts its manufacturing. Currently, the firm's collections are distributed in over sixty nations.
