SERGIO ASTI (Milan, 1926-2021) for Zanotta. Pair of Navy folding chairs, 1969. Light wood frame. Upholstered upholstery in high quality natural leather. Measurements: 87 x 57 x 60 cm. Pair of folding armchairs with open structure made of wood with seat and backrest upholstered in high quality natural leather. The X-shaped scissor legs fold in such a way as to facilitate the storage of the chairs and at the same time give them a distinctive look. Sergio Asti studied at the Politecnico di Milano and began his career in the 1950s working for industrial design companies such as Kartell, Cassina, Knoll, Poltronova, Gabbianelli and Olivetti. Asti is known for his minimalist, elegant style and use of simple geometric shapes and bright colors. He opened his studio in 1953, becoming one of the first Italian industrial designers and one of the founding members of the ADI (Association for Industrial Design). Some of his most famous designs are the "Daruma" lamp for FontanaArte, the "Siesta" chair for Gabbianelli, the "Cobra" lamp for Martinelli Luce and the "Valentine" typewriter for Olivetti. From his beginnings, he was also active in the design of public and private buildings, interiors and equipment, including: the Fiat showroom (Milan, 1964), the offices of the FISI presidency (Milan, 1976). He also taught at the Istituto Superiore d'Arte in Venice and at the Istituto Sperimentale Superiore in Shizuoka (Japan). In 1956 and 1960 he was awarded the Compasso d'Oro. His work is currently held at the MoMA in New York and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, among other public and private collections.
