MASSIMO VIGNELLI Mod. Saratoga White and Red ClubChair / ArmChair, 1964

About the Item

Historic armchair mod. Saratoga in white lacquered wood with cushions in beautiful red-purple fabric. If you can design one thing, you can design everything, said Massimo Vignelli (1931-2014). Produced by Poltronova. The armchair is made up of a series of modules in white lacquered wood, with cushions in red fabric. Studied down to the smallest detail, its design is linear and simple but perfectly and comfortably accommodates a person's seat. Combined with 1stDibs Ref: LU952830476702. Massimo Vignelli has worked in a number of areas ranging from package design to furniture design, to public signage, to showroom design through Vignelli Associates, which he co-founded with his wife, Lella. He studied architecture at the Politecnico di Milano and later at the Università di Architettura, Venice. Vignelli went to New York in 1966 to start the New York branch of a new company, Unimark International, which quickly became one of the largest design firms in the world. They designed many recognizable corporate identities, including American Airlines and the New York City Subway. In 1971, Massimo resigned from Unimark, and soon after, he and Lella founded Vignelli Associates.
