Armchair c. 1963

This minimalist armchair, designed by Italian artist Joe Colombo in 1963, exemplifies the organic forms and sculptural qualities of mid-century modern design. Its smooth, white, curved surfaces and seemingly floating form create a sense of lightness and fluidity, a signature element of Colombo's work. Constructed from plywood, the chair's innovative design showcases a unique balance between functionality and artistic expression, reflecting the growing interest in experimentation and new materials within the design world of the 1960s.
