Abarth Chair
For decades Abarth, the auto-sport division of the Fiat group, has been celebrated for its customized Fiat automobiles, characterized by a close attention to details, the use of innovative materials and the production of fast, hi-performance and fun-to-drive vehicles.
Fabio Novembre was inspired by these elements, transforming them into a chair: dynamic lines that symbolize speed give rise to transparent profiles which recall the rush of the wind during a race. A light but highly distinctive seat is matched with a reverse cantilever base. The result is a modern and sporty chair, easily recognizable thanks to its forceful and dynamic silhouette.

Nuance Chair
Designed by
Luca Nicetto, Nuance is a new concept in upholstered seating. Nuance is available in two versions: one designed to be used with a table, and a ‘lounge’ version- lower, wider and more welcoming. The upholstery of Nuance incorporates a subtle range of colors thanks to the careful workmanship involved in utilizing fabric off-cuts.
Nuance combines a strong ergonomic approach with visual appeal and the hand-made tradition of the master craftsman, giving extra value to the product as well as minimizing waste.

Lobby Chair
Design by Oslo-based agency
Stokke Austad, the armchair, which is available completely upholstered either in fabric or leather, is born from the desire to create a product that creates a space for itself. The extruded armrests delineate an area into which the user enters when he sitting down.
The same armrests also offer comfort and an inviting space whilst adding a distinctive character to the chair. The form of the chair is clear and decisive with a strong profile and clean lines while the inside is softer and molded to accommodate the user. Lobby is created from fire-resistant cold formed foam over an internal structure in metal.

Him & Her
The Him & Here chairs designed by
Fabio Novembre are crafted from rotationally molded polyethylene. Their shapes were created using a 3 dimensional scan of 2 plaster sculptures. Available in two different finishes: matt polyethylene, mass-dyed rotation molded and in glossy varnished polyethylene.
“
Him & Her are born directly from the ideas behind the Panton Chair. An evolution of the hermaphroditic original, declined into the harmony of the two sexes. They assume sculpted forms like naked models of seduction…but they feel no shame.”
