Scarpa 925

The postmodern Italian design-couple Afra and Tobia Scarpa ran one of the most widely acclaimed and well-known professional design studios, and together, they had an impressive impact on Italian design in the 1970s and 1980s.

Today, Afra and Tobia Scarpa's work is part of the collection of many museums worldwide and has been exhibited in countless temporary exhibitions. One of those iconic pieces, permanently on display at MoMA in New York, is the 925 Scarpa lounge chair.

The iconic 925 Scarpa Lounge Chair is a strikingly elegant lounge chair. Easily recognized by its firm and robust wooden frame and the striking contrast it creates to the lightness of the leather covered seat and backrest. The anatomical design of the seat, combined with the natural elasticity of the cantilevered backrest, creates a lounge chair that is equally comfortable and elegant.
