Antonio Citterio Spoon Stool
Kartell's technological challenge and courage in exploring the
technological world in its widest sense, have led to the Company to
continuously increase and expand its experience, resulting in an
ability to present profound innovations in the functions and
exploitation of design furniture. But the advantage is not only in
functionality. Thanks to more sophisticated technology, the aesthetics
and the clean lines of the projects are not only maintained but even
enhanced.
This has happened with Spoon, the revolutionary stool
designed by Antonio Citterio, the slim, curved lines of which bring to
mind the outline of a spoon.
The innovation of the project consists, on
one hand, of the connection of the seat to the central leg by means of
an elastic curve in a plastic material, able to resist the stresses and
strains exerted by weight; and on the other hand, of the introduction
of a handle, inside the leg, to regulate the mechanism of the gas pump.
Thus the height of the stool can be raised but the clean line of the
whole is preserved. This is a real touch of class from Kartell
technology, which reveals in this way great attention not only to the
functionality of the design, but also to its formal elegance. Spoon is
the concrete example of how industrial technology applied to the design
sector can contribute to the preservation of the quality of the form,
in a word: to beauty.
Thanks to the youthful line, the brilliant
colours and the versatility of the material, Spoon can be used in many
different contexts: home office, bars, fashionable restaurants and also
in unconventional décors. Materials: mass coloured thermoplastic
material for the seat, leg, foot rest and base; anodised aluminium for
the central stem (visible only when raised to the maximum height).
