Joe Lounge Chair

Joe is a big comfortable chair in the form of a giant baseball glove, mounted on invisible wheels. With this project, the designers, inspired by the poetics of Pop Art, gave material form to their admiration for the legendary American baseball star Joe Di Maggio. With a courageous shift of scale, they transformed the glove into a welcoming place to sit, inserting a hyperrealist figure borrowed from the world of art into the domestic environment. Constructed of steel frame and preformed polyurethane foam padding, cover made from 10 sq meters of high-quality soft leather. Designed in 1970. Made in Italy.

Dimensions

69"W x 43.5"D x 37.5"H
