Description
Marco Zanuso, born in 1916, was one of a group of Italian designers from Milan shaping the international idea of "good design" in the postwar years. After graduating from the Politecnico di Milano in 1939 with a degree in architecture, and serving in the Second World War, he opened his own office in 1945 and was a pioneer of the use of modern materials.
Along with other pieces - such as the ‘Lady’ and the ‘Martingala’ chairs designed by Marco Zanuso for Arflex - the ‘Regent’ lounge chair, designed in 1960, embodies the modern characteristics of its era. This model, with its outward pointing armrests and the dynamic lines of the seating, combines modern forms and ideals to obtain a timeless, impressive piece of furniture. The sets are upholstered in a lambswool fabric in a pleasant cream colour. The chairs are each decorated with four tufted buttons, which add an elegant element of visual interest while alluding to the functionality and focus on comfort of the design. The set is completed by two matching footstools, complementing the chairs while serving an obvious functional purpose, further enhancing the lounging experience. All four pieces feature wheels for easy movement, allowing them to be flexible additions to creative interiors.
Through their modern look and functional features, these pair of Marco Zanuso ‘Regent’ lounge chairs are in service of both the experience of the user, as well as the pursuit of a beautifully decorated space. These pieces are a symbol of timeless elegance, artisanal skill, and the enduring allure of modern design.
