Completes the range the new armchair with sled base, the Chancellor Conference.

The padding uses both hand-fashioned vegetal horsehair and rubberised horsehair, the seat cushion is filled with goose down. The springing of the seat, back and arms is by means of biconic steel springs, tied manually and rested on jute belts.

Scarlett

Scarlett is a sofa which is also a chaise-lounge, a welcoming and comfortable nest. The Scarlett steals the show, its eye-catching circular form an invitation to relax. A project very much in line with Jean-Marie Massaud’s style, the Scarlett combines architectural geometries with full and soft volumes.

The piece is surrounded by a brushed and burnished steel ring which supports a system of Cuoio Saddle Extra leather straps. The straps create a frame which functions both as a backrest and armrest in an elegant lattice which hosts the padded goose down and polyurethane foam seat. Goose down is also used in the backrest cushions, which in turn are liberally covered with loose square and rectangular cushions. All of the cushions are upholstered in fabric or Pelle Frau® leather. The seat’s frame is made of solid beech wood. The Scarlett also features eight castors which allow the sofa to rotate through 360°.

Ming’s Heart

East and West. The Ming’s Heart project goes straight to the core of two worlds, two visions, two philosophies of life and living. Shi-Chieh Lu, a Taiwan based architect and designer, won the prestigious Taiwan Design Contest promoted by Poltrona Frau and Euchain Ltd., a long-established Taiwanese dealer. This contest aims to encourage the cultural exchange between East and West, between the values underlying the idea of design in Taiwan and Poltrona Frau identity. The historic Ming chair is the reference model for this piece by Shi-Chieh Lu.

The purity of its lines, the perfect expression of Chinese and Oriental spirituality, reverberates in the geometric and cubic formality of the Western vision. Shi-Chieh Lu pares down surfaces until he achieves a continuous line. Armrests, seat and back become the lightest of fluid, graphic shapes. The profile is made from tubular steel. Weight and gravity are no longer determined by the lower part of the structure, but by the top from which the seat hangs.

The shell is a continuous surface, a sort of triangle made from thin steel sheet, completely covered in saddle-leather. Its ends are fixed to the tubes with visible screws. The final result is a chair that floats in space, almost like a futuristic swing or a conceptual sculpture. Lightly padded in polyurethane foam, thicker on the seat and lumbar cushion, the shell is upholstered in Cuoio Saddle Extra leather, with visible contrasting hand-stitching. Gunmetal grey galvanic treatment for the steel tubes creates an even more ethereal effect.

Mesa

Mesa is a sculpted, almost primitive table, this icon of formal purity was first designed in 1985 by Lella and Massimo Vignelli and has now been revisited by Poltrona Frau. Mesa table combines the two simple geometric shapes of a circle and a cone.

The top is composed of Ligurian slate which, thanks to the traditional splitting technique, retains the rock’s natural grooves and lines on the surface. The supporting column is made from grey Pietra Serena sandstone. The overall effect is a physical monolith which is solid and compact yet light at the same time.

The junction between the table top and the column is formed of tubular burnished steel and is mounted with three brackets whose adjustable spacers make it possible to change the position of the top.
A burnished sheet steel surface base gives the surface additional stability and strength, whilst the base of the stone support is finished with a shaped tip of black plastic.
