Potocco | Minima

An essential and functional seat, which in the discreet stroke of designer Mario Ferrarini reveals the company's DNA

Minima in name as well as deed. The new chair designed by Mario Ferrarini is fully expressed in forms that are essential and archetypal but equally welcoming and sturdy. What emerges is Potocco’s skill in working with wood: the plywood of the seat and backrest creates a sinuous comfort; thanks to an elegant twist, the legs in solid ash embrace the backrest. What is more, its fluid lines are enhanced by the new colours, in addition to the versions with wood finishes from the standard range, it is also available in a delicate palette that has been designed to coordinate with other products in the collection. Minima is also stackable, making it an element of furniture that is suitable not just for the home but also for contract use.
