joe colombo roll chairDesign Joe Colombo, 1962.
Chromed steel, Polyurethane cushions, leather upholstery. Made in Italy by B-Line. "I think that the common use of the word 'furniture', referring to a new house or apartment, is now days inappropriate. To be clear it would be better if we talked about 'interior architecture'; considering the home as a space to organize and equip, in all its volumes, with elements suitable for our needs and the epoque in which we are living." -Joe Colombo, 1965. The armchair made of rollers, hence its name, Roll, is composed of an elegant chromed steel structural frame and removable shaped, expanded polyurethane cushions, covered in soft leather. The cushions, along with the independent steel framework and broad elastic bands, make this chair particularly comfortable. Hand-crafted workmanship increases the value of an object which in itself is unique. A comfortable footrest with the same features completes the armchair. Available in black leather. Joe Colombo, in his design utopia, gathered many of the common hopes of the 60's in Italy and Europe but was never slave to ideological bounds. His extremely fast escalation in becoming an internationally known designer brought him three medals at the XIII Triennale in Milan, the 1967 Compasso d'Oro award and creations which are included in permanent collections around the world.
