A nod to 1950s style, the Russell seating collection, designed by Rodolfo Dordoni for Minotti, is available in a wide variety of models: an enveloping armchair, elegant lounge and dining room armchairs, a bergère, a soft sofa and an ottoman. The shape of the Russell collection reinvents retro lines, updating them with the extremely sophisticated finishes of the cushions and backrest, which can be upholstered with fabric or leather for an elegant contrast in textures. The fixed cross-shaped base in Light Bronze metal with its feet sheathed in Moka oak is surprising. It is a detail of Russell that reflects Minotti's virtuosity in combining diverse materials, which are worked with the skills inherited from the company's artisanal tradition. Russell chairs will fit perfectly into a home and will also work wonderfully in a professional environment looking to add a touch of authenticity.
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.
