Italian architect and designer Tobia Scarpa defines design as a profession without a rule book. In the 1960s and 1970s it was this vision, and his creative partnership with his wife Afra, that pushed Italys techniques and aesthetics into a new golden age.
Italian architect and designer Tobia Scarpa defines design as a profession without a rule book. In the 1960s and 1970s it was this vision, and his creative partnership with his wife Afra, that pushed Italys techniques and aesthetics into a new golden age. The Scarpa 925 Lounge Chair (1966) is a striking, elegant lounge chair and enduring icon of midcentury Italian design. Its sturdy, double-trestle wood frame contrasts with the lightness and curves of the low leather seat and back with its distinctive slotted cutout. The 925s bold silhouette is at once robust and playful, while the contoured, cantilevered backrest evokes an anatomical lightness. Made in Italy.
