Armchairs

A pair of armchairs designed by Gio Ponti and Emilio Lancia for Domus Nova in 1929.
Made of wood, they feature a refined geometric pattern on the backrest, reflecting the decorative language developed by the two designers during this period. The wooden legs are elegantly tapered, and the seat is upholstered in fabric.
This design marks the transition from classicism to a more modern aesthetic that came to define late 1920s Italian design.
