Limited Edition
Price € 2.489,00
Jasper Morrison's Thinking Man's Chair, produced by Cappellini, was one of the first highly successful projects of the famous English designer. Conceived in 1985, shortly after his graduation from the Royal College of Art in London, this “thinker's chair” takes up classic and timeless forms, with a deep seat that invites relaxation and contemplation. It was initially presented as a unique piece in an exhibition at Zeev Aram's London showroom and immediately caught the attention of another great design talent scout, Giulia Cappellini, who decided to start mass production. It is made of metal (tubular for the curved parts, flat profile in the seat and back slats) and has two practical circular shelves at the end of the armrests as its distinctive feature. Perfect for outdoor environments, for example by the pool, thanks to its distinctive and iconic shapes it finds many opportunities for placement even in the interior spaces of the house.

Designed by
Jasper Morrison
Jasper Morrison (1959-) is one of the leading figures of the successful brood of English designers who, starting from the 1980s, made themselves known all over the world, achieving great successes each with their own personal aesthetic. His was important on a pushed minimalism, conceived as a reaction to the experimental excesses of design of those years and to the prevailing consumerism. Guided by the desire to reconstruct a direct relationship with the gestures of the users of his objects and with their needs, Morrison becomes the standard bearer of the poetics of the “Super Normal”, as defined by the name of a successful exhibition dedicated to him. His first furnishings, with delicate curves and sober colors, were edited by the English company SCP during the years when he was still a student. Starting from the end of the 1980s, his fruitful collaborations with Cappellini and Vitra placed him at the forefront of the international design stage, later giving him the opportunity to work with prestigious brands such as Magis, Flos, Emeco, Kettal, Alias and Rowenta.Read more
