Vittorio Introini for Saporiti, pair of 'Larissa' lounge chairs, fabric, chrome, acrylic, Italy, 1969

This eccentric pair of lounge chairs named ‘Larissa’ epitomizes a beautiful design that is based on a solid construction of clear lines and geometrical shapes. The acrylic border in black holds the cushions together and is adorned with chromed joints. The upholstery features beautiful lines in various patterns executed in purple black tones. This creates more visual interest and adds a graphical touch to the design.

Vittorio Introini (born 1935) was an Italian Post-war designer. He started designing furniture around the 1960s, being mostly inspired to create international and antihistorical artworks. Moreover, the importance of spatiality and architectural elements is well represented in the work of Introini. These features are also visible in this sideboard. The designer’s ambition to create an international and avant-garde style was eventually possible when he was able to collaborate with Saporiti Company.
