When you think of architecture, you may think of buildings and bridges, but rarely furniture. The Molteni & C D.156.3 Armchair seeks to redefine this term by adding a little bit of a Latin touch. In this vein, the D.156.3 Armchair was designed by Gio Ponti and produced for Altamira as the perfect combination between art, architecture, and the human element.
Featuring contrasting angles, a simultaneous sense of privacy and openness is achieved with the triangle side panels that sit adjacent to the user’s head. Crisscrossed back webbing provides a supporting embrace that encourages the user to lounge and lulls them into relaxation (much to the delight of therapists across the globe).
Available in a multitude of finishes and customized touches, the D.156.3 Armchair is as unique as the architectural features that inspired its creation. Owning one will require you to find the nearest Molteni & C and determine if you want to splurge.
