Marcello Cuneo (1933–2015) was an Italian architect and designer from Turin who worked closely with Gio Ponti in the early years of his career, before establishing his own independent studio. His work is characterized by an elegant balance between form and function, often combining sculptural precision with an essential, architectural aesthetic.
The “Luisa” folding chair is among his most celebrated designs — a sculptural seat defined by its curved chromed steel frame and contoured leather or suede seat, embodying the Italian design philosophy of the 1970s that sought lightness, versatility, and movement in everyday furniture.
The model was produced by Mobel Italia, a manufacturer active between the late 1960s and early 1970s, known for its high-quality modern furnishings in metal and chromed steel, with a focus on innovative folding mechanisms and minimalist lines.
