Zanotta Poltrona Sacco

From the idea of ​​Gatti, Paolini and Teodoro was born a design product that embodies an era, resisting time and fashions by contaminating the formalism of housing conventions. This ingenious seat adapts to the body, the environment, the mood; it is a seat, a support surface, a carpet, a game for children and adults, it is a brilliant and irreverent object. Its shape-non-form filled with polystyrene balls is now an icon at any latitude and has rightfully entered the history of Italian design.
VIP fabric covering also suitable for external attic use.

Designed by Design Gatti, Paolini, Teodoro, 1968
