Sunball Armchair (1969) Fiberglass, metal, methacrylate, PVC, brown fabric. Manufactured by Rosenthal 148 x 172 x 146 cm Original upholstery An icon of the late 1960s Space Age aesthetic, the Sunball Armchair follows in the footsteps of the futuristic designs of Eero Aarnio, Verner Panton, and Joe Colombo. Its spherical, enveloping silhouette, with organic and sculptural lines, also evokes the experiments of Pierre Paulin and Olivier Mourgue. Blending pop culture, the space race, and domestic utopia, the Sunball embodies an era when design pushed the boundaries between furniture, sculpture, and architecture.
