With its romantic and baroque design, the Proust Chair is based on the original 1978 design. After 30 years, the Proust Chair is still a timeless piece of design, an 'industrial' Pop-style work of art. Proust first appeared in the late 1970s, a decade marked by architectural experimentation. The occasion was an exhibition at the Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara, and from then on it won the approval of critics and the public alike. Proust becomes the absolute protagonist of the environment, capturing the attention from whatever perspective it is observed.
Proposed in two colour versions, multicolour blue/grey/yellow (PR_1) and multicolour black/green/red (PR_2).
Alessandro Mendini (1931-2019) was one of the great italian designers, architects and artists of postmodern design between the ‘60s and ‘70s. His revolutionary, visionary and ironic style is concretized in artworks destined to become real design icons. Among them, the Proust armchair for Magis, a work of Re-Design characterized by a romantic, baroque and distinctly ludic style and the world-famous Anna G. bottle openers for Alessi, for which he also was meta-project consultant.
Avant-garde design, experimentation and art come together in Cappellini design. The strength of the brand has always been its ability to foresee leading designers and trends that would have great success on the international scene. Cappellini's production process is halfway between tradition, quality of raw materials and technological research, a combination that results in a rich catalog that ranges from iconic masterpieces, such as Tom Dixon's sinuous S-Chair, to cutting-edge novelties.
