Customizable Tacchini Pigreco Chair by Tobia Scarpa

About the Item

Price listed for starting FABRIC and glossy lacquer The essential nature of a sign. The proportion of solids and voids. The harmony between straight and curved lines. Every feature of this chair responds to a logic: conveying a “sense of space” to a traditionally static object. The triangle acts as a dynamic element and is reinforced by the two rear legs, which come closer together to give the seat stability without compromising the feeling of lightness that pervades the object. Tobia Scarpa’s graduation project at the University of Venice in 1959, this is the first product ever designed by the Italian architect. Tacchini’s exclusive re-edition of Pigreco in Canaletto walnut, walnut-stained ash and charcoal grey ash, with leather or fabric seat covering, bears the mark of the great architect. The Pigreco chair, designed by Tobia Scarpa in 1959 and re-edited by Tacchini in 2021, is enriched with two new glossy lacquer finishes in white and dark green. Its essentiality and the harmony between straight lines and curves continue to convey a “sense of space,” with a design that combines stability and lightness. A timeless icon, its dynamic triangle shape reaffirms the perfect balance between innovation and tradition.
