Originally designed in 1997, a sketch among the many in Fritz Hansen’s design department, the effortless form of a ‘z’ scrawled across a piece of paper influenced the chairs unusually striking backwards armrests. The frame, moulded from a single piece of powder-coated steel, acts as a support for the contemporary body of the chair, whilst arm pads add an element of comfort and luxury. Well balanced with a spirit of versatility, this stylish veneer stacking chair is a vision of simplicity and compact lines. Effortlessly contemporary with an aesthetic perfectly suited to both the workplace and home, the Vico Duo™ Armchair is sure to add impact when paired with a dining table or desk.
Also available, the Vico Duo™ Dining Chair.
Italian designer Vico Magistretti was dubbed one of the founding fathers of Italian design.
In the 1960s, Magistretti began working with some of the world’s leading manufacturers – from Artemide to Oluce - designing furniture and objects considered modern-day “classics”. Today, his award-winning work can be seen in galleries, museums and private residences – each piece showcasing his ability to fuse simplicity with essentialism in contemporary design.
