SOFO | Armchair by Superstudio for Poltronova

Superstudio, the radical architects of Florence, made Sofo from the simplest gesture they could find: one S-shaped cut through a cube of polyurethane foam, dressed in fabric with two broad stripes. Use one as an armchair, line several up in a row, or stack them into bright, soft hills.

History of Superstudio:

Founded in Florence in 1967 and composed of Adolfo Natalini, Cristiano Toraldo di Francia, Roberto Magris, Piero Frassinelli, Alessandro Magris and Alessandro Poli, this revered group carried out theoretic research into design, worked in the field of architecture with exhibitions and constructions, and was active in the field of design with furniture and domestic objects. From 1971 to 1973, the group produced didactic films and utopian projects on “fundamental” acts, seeking a philosophical and anthropological rethinking of architecture, some of which were presented in the groundbreaking 1972 exhibition “Italy: the New Domestic Landscape “ at the MoMA of New York.
