One of the world’s most renowned design pieces, the Proust armchair by Alessandro Mendini debuted in 1978 for an exhibition titled ‘Close Encounters of Architecture’ at the Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara. Its postmodern soul quickly captured the attention of enthusiasts and professionals on an international scale. This reissue of the iconic armchair features the traditional hand-carved and hand-painted wooden frame, with fixed multi-colored fabric upholstery that mirrors the decoration of the structure itself.
