Designed in 1989, the Parigi armchair was presented in Paris, on Designers’ Saturday, at the UniFor showroom on Rue des Saints-Pères. Parigi is the response to the needs of the office environment as interpreted by Aldo Rossi: a domestic space for working. Born on the request to design furniture that would be suitable for both home and office, Rossi’s Parigi armchair is simple, elegant, and extremely functional. The seat and backrest of the Parigi armchair are rectangular, with a minimalist design. The geometry of the armchair is interrupted by dynamic curves that form the arms and front feet, while seemingly pushing the entire structure off its normal inclination. The structure is based on calendared aluminium elements, finished in matte black varnish. The seat and backrest are composed of moulded shells in red polyurethane that encase varying densities of rubber padding. The result is a chair that is both beautiful and surprisingly comfortable.
