Pipe Armchair
Sebastian Herkner,
Poltrona Pipe
The Pipe armchair by Moroso was born in 2015 from a concept that counterpose the bulk to the fine, preferring a choice of counter-trend compared to the most common search for the slim shapes. In its simplicity, Sebastian Herkner’s design is articulated around the most reassuring aspect of oversize: the simplicity. The structure, essential and very robust, consists of a powder-coated aluminum tube with a diameter of 80 cm. Resting on it, the rounded seat cushion is voluminous, veiled suggestion of the idea of the inflatable module. Thick and pronounced, the backrest in cold foamed foam offers a pleasant roundness, perfect for combining maximum comfort and aesthetic lightness.
Simple, original and in some ways extremely fun, Sebastian Herkner’s armchair was later taken up by the designer and remodeled in 2016 in two equally iconic variants: the Pipe sofa and the Pipe chaise longue. Old shapes and new artistic solutions come together in these two collections where it is impossible not to notice eclecticism and great imaginative ability.
In their extreme versatility, the Pipe collection is perfectly suited to both living and contract spaces, by approaching sofas and armchairs of various styles.
