The Luisa armchair features American walnut construction with geometric seat and back planes suspended on a refined wood structure. Its solid walnut frame provides exceptional durability while the suspended design offers comfortable seating. The natural wood grain adds warmth and character, and the balanced proportions ensure both stability and visual appeal. This piece showcases the harmony between quality materials and thoughtful design principles.
The result of 15 years' labour from designer Franco Albini, 'Luisa' is an extraordinary chair in which the concept of 'substance in form' is aptly expressed. Albini's mission to dedicate himself to creating an archetype in which the core elements of the structure respond to various possible uses in the home led to the creation of a chair where the seat and the back are two geometric planes suspended on a simple wood structure. The result is a timeless piece that is a testament to skill, technique and high quality materials, and one which was awarded the prestigious Compasso D’Oro prize by the Italian Industrial Design Association. Re-issued by Cassina in a world exclusive.
