I Saloni Milan - Tacchini






The following are the new designs presented by Tacchini in Milan.


T-CHAIR  
by Barazzuol / Malisan



T-Chair takes its name from the T of Tacchini which, incidentally, is also a distinguishing feature of the back of the chair. T-Chair is the result of the desire to make a chair as simple as its design sketch. The unbroken penciled line is transformed into the coated and bent iron frame with a rectangular profile. Discretely attached to this frame are the soft shapes of the seat and back made in wood or upholstery for comfortable seating. The T-Chair is available in a variety of colors and fabrics.





CRYSTAL
by Pearson Lloyd


The Crystal collection of sofas and armchairs reflects smart and absolute simplicity.



The Crystal collection consists of a 2 or 3 seater sofa and two armchairs: one is square-shaped, while the other one is round-shaped and snug throughout with a round cushion in the middle.



For each piece in this collection, a lifting effect is created through the beveled base.


FIXIE
by Pearson Lloyd


The main feature of the Fixie stool is its tubular structure, which gives this piece a sculptural quality. However, the aesthetic quality of this stool does not hide its functionality: the stool is adjustable in height and revolves 360 degrees. Fixie is available in a variety of bright colors.




HIGHLIFE
by Claesson Koivisto Rune

Simplicity and dynamism are the key feature of the Highlife series. Each piece is available in different heights, and the use of additional cushions enriches this new collection in terms of elegance, comfort and versatility.


A variety of compositions are possible which allow you to create customized matches and ideal spaces to work, chat or relax.


DRESSED
by Luca Nichetto


New to the Dressed collection, this small revolving armchair features the same padded upholstered seating as the other models in the collection. Its modest size makes the Dressed armchair suitable for the home or office.


CLEAR by Christophe Pillet


The new Clear chair by Christophe Pillet for Tacchini is characterized by its simple lines and stacking wooden frame.
Just like a “little black dress”, the Clear chair is at ease in any setting, whether at the home or office, or in a commercial or hospitality setting.

Salon Maison & Objet, Paris - Tacchini

Avant-Scène Favorites:

Babela
Design: Pier Giacomo and Achille Castiglioni


The Babela chair is the product of an historic partnership between brothers Pier Giacomo and Achille Castiglioni, with Dino Gavina, the Italian industrial design pioneer. Unveiled in 1958 as part of the furnishings for Milan's Chamber of Commerce in Via Meravigli, it was designed to solve the furnishing needs of large meeting rooms and conference halls. The chair is built light so that it can be easily moved around, and stackable with minimal clearance. It can be arranged to create long straight rows, armrest against armrest, making the most of the available space. Its functionality is enhanced by a pronounced feeling of comfort and correct posture.



Cage
Design: Gordon Guillaumier


Gordon Guillaumier's Cage coffee table design focusses on the use of metal strips which have been stamped with a slight bend so as to soften the geometry of the whole piece. It is made to adapt to the rounded shapes of chairs and sofas.




Dressed
Design: Luca Nichetto


By drawing on the protective padding used in sportswear, designer Luca Nichetto incorporated the sofa into a single covering that "clothes" the frame like a dress. Soft, comfortable, and fully customizable with different types of coverings, Dressed stands for a casual-chic style that is as well suited to the home as it is to public furnishings.

V-Table
Design: Xavier Lust


The V-Table collection is a project with a marked simplicity and versatility that meets the needs of large-scale production and distribution, while maintaining high standards in quality and style. Its lightweight design combines a sense of movement with excellent three-leg stability. Many forms, finishes and options match the needs of different decors: indoor and outdoor, households, or collective, professional and catering spaces. The table is a great furnishing complement to sofas or chairs.



Sancarlo
Design: Achille Castiglioni


The Sancarlo armchair and sofa consist of a basic structure with an added metal tubing frame, upholstered with padding in variable degrees of thickness to ensure optimal support to every part of the body. A synthesis of ergonomics and design that is suitable for public spaces and the modern household.
