UP5_6, an unrivalled icon of Italian design on the international stage, now presented in an unusual version designed for children aged over 3 years: UPJ. The new Junior version, which is identical to the original except for being smaller in size, is proposed as a design armchair both comfortable and playful; its attractive shape and its bright red colour will tastefully furnish and enhance spaces dedicated to children and even compact metropolitan apartments.

Gaetano Pesce

Gaetano Pesce is an Italian architect and a design pioneer of the 20th century. He studied architecture in Venice and attended the Venice Institute of Industrial design. At this experimental school, he met Milena Vettore with whom he opened a studio in Padua, founding in 1959 the "N" Group which focused on studies in programmed art. Since 1962 he has worked in design, experimenting with new materials and unusual shapes. In 1971 he collaborated with BracciodiFerro (then part of the Cassina group) for the production of certain experimental objects and in 1972 he took part in the famous exhibition 'Italy: The New Domestic Landscape' at MoMA in New York. Examples of his work, such as the UP_5 are found in the most important design museums all over the world.
