Pair of Onda armchairs by De Pas, D'Urbino & Lomazzi for Zanotta

Pair of Onda armchairs designed by Jonathan De Pas, Donato D'Urbino, and Paolo Lomazzi for Zanotta in Italy in the 1980s. These iconic examples of Italian postmodern design are distinguished by their generously rounded lines and exposed tubular chrome structure. The backrest forms a continuous curve that envelops the seat in a fluid movement reminiscent of a wave, a direct reference to the model's name. The dark upholstery punctuated with multicoloured patterns enhances the graphic and radical aesthetic characteristic of Italian design in the 1980s. Publisher: Zanotta, Italy, circa 1985.
