piuma chair
Design Piero Lissoni, 2016
Technoplastic polymer, carbon fiber
Made in Italy by Kartell
2016 saw the completion of the Piuma chair project by Piero Lissoni. The chair is one of the most revolutionary and enterprising products in Kartell's repertoire of technology and materials. By applying its injection molding techniques in a sophisticated new way that was designed especially for this material, an exclusive in the world of industrial design, Kartell has managed to create a chair that measures just a few millimetres thick (2 mm max), resulting in an ultra-light product (barely 2.2 kg). It is the first time that a material containing carbon fiber has been injection molded, and for an aesthetic, stylish product at that. Thanks to this unprecedented mix of materials, the Piuma is not only extremely light and slender but also incredibly durable, flexible and suitable for outdoor use.
24.4" w | 30.4" h | 21.25" d | seat: 16.9" h | arms: 25.6" h | 5.8 lbs.
