XS is an exhibition presenting a selection of Poltronova’s iconic designs — like Mies by Archizoom Associati, 1969 — alongside something unexpected.
◺ The Mies armchair was born in 1969 from the idea of using a strip of para rubber or India rubber –strong, elastic materials– as a seat. The structure, a triangle in chrome–plated metal, brings out the purity of the silhouette. The headrest and footrest–lamp cushions are in ponyskin. The name emphasizes the similarity of the structure to the projects of Mies van der Rohe, as a tribute to the great master who died that same year.
◿ The prototype, which is the gift made by Paolo Deganello to Dario Bartolini and Lucia Morozzi for their wedding, was born from the idea of using the typical element of industrial conveyor belts as a seat. It is a strip of natural rubber that is grafted onto the trapezoidal steel frame, fixing itself to two cylindrical sticks. In contrast with the seat, the headrest is in pony leather. The armchair is listed in the catalog by the company along with a luminous footrest with the same steel and pony finishes.

🌟 Our beloved @bethanlaurawood! 🌟
From the Terrazzo Quarry at the Design Museum to the cover of Door Magazine, Bethan keeps inspiring us with her vibrant, playful vision.
— Designed for the Platform exhibition, Terrazzo Quarry is a interactive soft sculpture that show cases the Terrazzo pattern developed for Poltronova.
Giant rocks extrude out from the ground blurring the line between 2D and 3D pattern and form inviting the public to sit lean and explore their soft forms. Bethan decided to create a super fake terrazzo who’s precious stones could have been mined from the psychedelic landscape that many of the icon designs from Poltronova’s catalogue evoke.

“People are afraid of color. I don’t know why, as this feeling doesn’t belong to me. What I do know is that color is powerful. Most people think they have no opinion about it, but put them in a colorful environment and, even if they don’t know why, they will have an emotional reaction”.

— Terrazzo Printed Fabric by Bethan Laura Wood, 2022
Bethan Laura Wood’s residency in a Venetian palazzo in 2010 inspired a kaleidoscopic terrazzo pattern. The precious stones, freed from the floor and landscape, are reinterpreted in a printed fabric for Poltronova, offering a unique tactile and visual experience.

Covered in pony-like bovine leather with shaved and dyed hair produced by Conceria Tris on the occasion of Lineapelle Interiors 2025, Joe is a large, comfortable armchair shaped like a giant baseball glove mounted on invisible wheels.
With this 1970 project, the designers, inspired by the poetics of Pop Art, materialized their admiration for the legendary American baseball champion Joe DiMaggio, introducing hyper-realistic figurations belonging to the world of art into the domestic environment. Joe is one of the icons of Italian design: exhibited in various museums dedicated to art and design, it is part of the permanent collection of the Triennale Design Museum and the MoMA in New York.
