Moroso Armchairs
Known for a legacy of material innovation and quality craftsmanship, Moroso produces sophisticated upholstered furniture for the hospitality sector and the luxury residential market. Since 1952, the manufacturer has been merging research and its tradition of forward-thinking design to create iconic sofas, chairs, tables and other furnishings.
Moroso was founded in Udine, Italy, by husband-and-wife team Agostino and Diana Moroso. Now under the artistic direction of the founders’ daughter, Patrizia Moroso, the manufacturer is one of Italy’s last family-owned furniture companies. Since its mid-century inception, Moroso has collaborated with many distinguished designers.
Swiss-Argentinian product designer Alfredo Häberli fashioned the Taba collection, including a sofa, two armchairs and several ottomans. Spanish architect and furniture maker Patricia Urquiola’s contribution to the Moroso family of products is vast, spanning a relationship that started in 1998. This includes the design of Patrizia Moroso’s private residence in northern Italy and a Lake Como hotel where the texture-rich, naturally hued guest suites also contain a selection of Urquiola furniture. Israeli designer Ron Arad is known for working with metal and for his thoughtful integration of technology in his furnishings. His Soft Heart rocking chair for the brand is built on a steel core. In 2009, Moroso partnered with fashion brand Diesel as well to create a furniture line featuring informal, distinctive and comfortable pieces.
Moroso is committed to environmental sustainability. In 1994 the company was awarded ISO 9001 production process certification by the International Organization for Standardization and ISO 14001 five years later.
Moroso’s furniture has been a part of exhibitions at museums worldwide, including MoMA in New York, Le Palais de Tokyo, Grand Palais in Paris, and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. They have also appeared in the Venice Biennale.

Moroso Gemma Armchair in Blur Black and White by Daniel Libeskind
By Daniel Libeskind, Moroso
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The Gemma collection was developed around the idea of contrast and experience derived from the perception of a shape. The sharp asymmetry of its three-dimensional geometry contrasts the softness of the upholstery. The multi-faceted profile is reminiscent of both a precious gemstone and of the compositions typical of fifteenth century Italian tapestries. The collection represents a synergy between the complex geometries of Libeskind and the well-known expertise of Moroso. Libeskind has drawn a tremendous amount of inspiration from natural geological forms including crystals, gems and natural rock formations...

Balzo Leather Armchair Massimo Iosa Ghini Moroso 1987, Green, Bolidista Memphis
By Moroso, Massimo Iosa Ghini
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Postmodern Hunter green leather Balzo armchair, Massimo Iosa Ghini, Moroso, 1987.
Iosa-Ghini's Bolidista manifesto (1982) exhorted designers to “break the reign of the angular line” and “find once more the sinuous curve.” Bolidismo is derived from bolide, the Italian word for a fast-moving object (such as a speeding bullet), or an object whose appearance implies speed. Iosa-Ghini followed up his Bolidist manifesto with an appealing series of chairs, cabinets and table-top accessories for such marques as Memphis and Moroso. The pieces combine the exuberance of his early work as a set designer and cartoonist with a smiling look back at 20th century design influences--including futurism (the avant-garde movement preceding World War I that romanced the wind-swept, streamlined look of ships, bridges and airplanes); Buck Rogers (1930s and 1940s science fiction), and 1950s moderne (furniture with skinny, pointy legs). On an architectural scale, he created Bolido, a New York nightclub and restaurant that boasts sweeping stair rails...
