"An all-time classic that will be hard to beat." -Abitare
The Bellini chair is often hailed as a piece of modern sculpture in its own right... a versatile and low-cost chair that appeals to the senses. The Bellini Chair has the uncanny ability to elevate its surroundings... a grouping can transform even the most dreary sidewalk into an impromptu 'design happening' that excites and invites dialogue. A smart choice for the home, restaurant or office... the question becomes not whether you should specify the Bellini chair, but how many?

Mario Bellini
Mario Bellini worked in urban planning as well as product and furniture design. He began as an architect after graduating from Milan Polytechnic. Some notable works are business machines for Olivetti, the "cab" chair for Cassina, furniture for B&B Italia and Vitra. His design work expanded to TV sets for Brionvega, stereos for Yamaha and a 5-year stint as an automobile design consultant for Renault, Fiat and Lancia cars.
Heller has created a simple paradigm: good design, industrial production and reasonable prices. Heller's stacking dinnerware won a Compasso d’Oro award and is included in the MoMA design collection.
