Inspired by an early 1970s creation, Mattia reinterprets a product from the Minotti archives. The neatly shaped outer hull greets the seat by opening like a flower to receive the particularly original roller element of the back. The formal solutions with sculptural accents and the balance between the rigid structure and the suspended volume give rise to a beautiful series of seats conjuring softness and comfort.
The Mattia collection consists of a three-seater sofa, an armchair and a swivel lounge chair available in all-over leather or fabric, or a model with a leather-covered hull and a fabric back and seat.
Designed as perfect elements to give the product a lightweight feeling of movement, the protruding steel legs feature a Black-Nickel finish. The same finish applies for the swivel base of the lounge chair.
Rodolfo Dordoni is a major figure in Italian design. After graduating in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic in 1979, he set up Dordoni Architects Studio and went on to work with major furniture brands such as Foscarini, Cappellini and Artemide, where he was artistic director, as well as Flos, Moroso, Cassina and, more recently, Coédition. He has also worked closely with Minotti since 1997. Its timeless, modern designs combine aesthetics and comfort. The lines are sober, minimalist and extremely distinctive. The roots of the collaboration between Minotti and Rodolfo Dordoni are long-standing and solid, because the same values are shared by the company and the designer. The designer's inspirations and thoughts come to life, and particular attention is paid to the details, finishes and materials that reveal the unique character of Minotti collections.
