B&B Italia
UP Armchair
UP1
From the same valuable configuration of the famous Up armchair by Gaetano Pesce, Up2 is born, an armchair that symbolizes interior design and an icon of pop art. Its dry and exaggerated design places it well in any room of the house, from living spaces to night areas, creating a feeling of comfort and familiarity with its rounded and enveloping shapes. The small size accentuates the feeling of being in front of an element halfway between an armchair, a small armchair and a pouf. Available in different colors and fabrics, Up2 is one of the many key elements of B&B Italia and its contemporary and highly distinctive furnishing paradigm.

B&B Italia's strongest ability is to combine creative ideas with design skills, which over the years have led the company to win four Golden Compasses. B&B Italia’s fulcrum is the Research and Development Centre (CR&S), a research laboratory dedicated to the study of the most innovative materials and the industrialization of production processes. The purpose of CR&S is to give life to the most groundbreaking projects of some of the major international designers.
Founded in the late 60's by Piero Ambrogio Busnelli and Cesare Cassina with the name of C&B Italia, the company has disrupted the furnishing industry's rules with a revolutionary industry vision. The ability to turn traditional furnishings production into industrial designs proves today, like yesterday, the strength of the company.Read more
Designed by
Gaetano Pesce
Gaetano Pesce (1939-2024) is a figure who does not allow himself to be caged by a single definition: architect, designer, sculptor and artist, he resorted to often very different means of expression to express his peculiar vision of the world and of society. His creations are often bearers of a strong message and reject any rigidity, even that of the industrial series: his pieces are often slightly different from them and somehow unique. Colorful and exuberant, they often resort to experimental materials such as resin and polyurethane foam, which make their shapes fluid and changeable. A poetic summed up to perfection by his most famous product, the Up armchair produced by B&B Italia, one of the most successful examples of the Radical Design current and at the same time revolutionary political manifesto on the condition of women. He was a great friend of Cesare Cassina and together with the brand's Research Center he founded the Bracciodiferro line, dedicated to the creation of avant-garde furnishings. From the 1980s he moved to New York and devoted himself mainly to architecture, carrying out important projects especially in Japan, but he did not completely abandon design: among his most recent creations, the collection of resin objects by Fish Design and the Michetta sofa designed for the Meritalia brand.Read more
