De Pas D’urbino & Lomazzi Galeotta Chaise Longue

Jonathan de Pas, Donato D’Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi are a legendary band of Milanese architects and designers who began to collaborate on iconic and unconventional designs in the 1960s. They embraced the pop spirit of their age, incorporating the best in Italian design and rejecting the stark functionality of the international style. This wonderful multifunctional chaise lounge is made up of squishy wedges that can be reordered to make a daybed. It proclaims the design philosophy of its makers in its playful simplicity and the prioritisation of comfort and fun. It has been recently reupholstered in a gorgeous new fabric: duke mohair, moutarde by Pierre Frey.
