Fabio Novembre Nemo Armchair - White

The Nemo armchair features a sculptural backrest shaped as a human face with classical carved features and cut-out eyes, enveloping the seated occupant. Designed by Fabio Novembre, the piece draws on the theatrical tradition of masks, with the face's composed expression lending the chair a distinctive visual character. The moulded construction maintains a clean, unified silhouette in a crisp white finish that emphasises the sculptural detailing.

The ultimate in statement seating, Fabio Novembre's 'Nemo' armchair is a surreal sculptural expression like no other. A face carved with classical features and cut-out eyes forms the back of a seat, which, aptly, hides or envelops its inhabitant. The face's expression is composed, curious, thoughtful, open to interpretation. The designer-architect's spectacular vision draws on classical theatre's use of masks to create anonymity, allowing actors to portray a variety of roles. Taking its name from the Latin for 'no one', 'Nemo' conceptually allows whoever sits in the seat to become anyone they like. A talking point and subject of endless conversation, the white version of the design, presented by innovative Italian brand Driade, brings drama and presence to rooms.
