Grande Papilio Armchair

B&B Italia

Grande Papilio Armchair

Designed by Naoto Fukasawa

The name recalls the butterfly because, as explained by the author, “the backrest designs the two wings with the head resting between them and protected by them.” It seems carved out of a block of material from which its inverted truncated cone shape derives. With a powerful personality, its swivel system facilitates contact with the surrounding environment.
