Tondina Pop by Infiniti, design Favaretto&PartnersThe iconic Tondina Pop celebrates its 10th anniversary. Over the past decade, the chair has become a symbol not only of Infiniti, but also of the contract furniture sector as a whole. Created in 2016 through a collaboration between the company and design studio Favaretto&Partners, it quickly found its way into hospitality, retail and corporate spaces around the world, earning its place as Infiniti’s longest-standing bestseller.

The concept centres on a balance between aesthetics and functionality, expressed through a visually lightweight structure, compact proportions, ergonomics and colour. These principles have given rise to a complete family of seating, comprising chairs, armchairs and stools in kitchen and bar heights. To mark its first decade, the collection evolves into Tondina Pop 10, a limited edition unveiled at Orgatec. While retaining its original silhouette, the new version introduces fresh colours and finishes. For the first time, the slender steel frame is presented with a glossy finish, colour-matched to the polypropylene seat and backrest. Four new shades have also been developed specifically for the occasion: Wine Red, Grey Brown, Ocean Blue and Light Ivory.

It represents the trust Infiniti placed in me when it became one of the first companies in the industry to believe in my talent as a young designer,” explains Francesco Favaretto. “Over the years, that trust has been rewarded by the results we have achieved and the many projects we have developed together.”
