Cappellini - Fronzoni ‘64 armchair
Equally bold and essential, the Fronzoni ’64 armchair is defined by straight lines, square angles and a decidedly minimalist edge. For this piece, designer AG 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 black 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.
AG Fronzoni
An eclectic name in the design and graphic design scene, AG Fronzoni based his aesthetic research on the elaboration and design of content. His long and intense career led him to incorporate architecture, design, visual communication and teaching. He has been a lecturer at the Società Umanitaria, the Monza Art Institute and the Institute of Artistic Industries in Urbino, as well as an editor for the magazines "Punta" and "Casabella." In Milan, he founded his own school.
Fronzoni's philosophy is summed up by his simple and effective words, "Aiming at the essential, eliminating every superfluous effect, every unnecessary flourish, elaborating a concept on a mathematical basis, around a fundamental idea, an elementary structure, doggedly avoiding waste and excess."
The beds, chairs, tables and armchairs signed by AG Fronzoni encapsulate the essence of the architect's creative vision. For this reason, the elements making up the Fronzoni '64 series are characterized by linear and geometric shapes, a perfect representation of his stylistic signature.
