1 of our personal favorites!
This design chair / seat was designed by Joe Colombo for Comfort in 1963.
This is one of the first furniture to be named after his wife Elda.
Joe Colombo had a short but very brilliant career.
The chair is inspired by shipbuilding technology.
The Elda chair was the first chair with a fully self-supporting glass fiber frame.
The chair is incredibly comfortable thanks to the 7 supporting cushions, the rotating base and the generous proportions.
Joe Colombo was one of the most influential product designers in Italy.
Unfortunately, he died at the age of 41 in 1971.
He was known for his multifunctional objects.
The Elda chair by Joe Colombo can also be seen in some world-famous films such as "The Hunger Games" in 2012 and the James Bond movie "The spy who loved me" in 1977.
The chair is of a first class design and gives a warm, cozy feeling in its shell-shaped backrest.
