Equally bold and essential, the Fronzoni ’64 armchair is defined by straight lines, square angles and a decidedly minimalist edge. For this piece, designer A. G. Fronzoni created a wide and accommodating seat, paired with a backrest that is incredibly comfortable, even during extended use.
The structure of the chair is well-grounded for a stable feel, with a matte lacquered white or anthracite finish and wooden slat suspension. The seat and back cushions are padded with polyurethane foam.
The removable covers of the Fronzoni ’64 armchair are available in black or white cotton, synthetic leather (Ecopelle) and leather.
"We need to aim at essential things, to remove every redundant effects, every useless flowering, to elaborate a concept on mathematical bases, on fundamental ideas, on elementary structures; we strongly need to avoid waste and excess".
Starting from these main points, the graphic designer born in Pistoia, has been strongly active in interior design, in graphics, exhibitions and didactics. He worked as a teacher first at the Società Umanitaria, then in the Istituto d' Arte of Monza and the Istituto delle Industrie Artistiche in Urbino, then finally in his own school in Milan. Brno, Buenos Aires, Lion, Milan and New York were the sets of his several personal exhibitions; many of his graphic works are part of the most important museums worldwide.
