Poltronova
Ultrafragola Mirror
Price € 8.784,00
Original and innovative, Ultrafragola represents a unique way of making design, where the aesthetic sense of the new, of the futuristic, of the beyond is strongly perceived. Both mirror and lamp, Ultrafragola stands out for its sinuous shape, evocative of wavy female hair in different shades of pink. It is part of the Gigi furniture series, a complete bedroom and living room, designed by Ettore Sottsass for Poltronova. Unfortunately only Ultrafragola has seen the light, quickly becoming a true icon of the brand. The beauty of this object lies in its dual essence, unlit and illuminated, which gives it a completely different look and sense of the whole. Ideal for any room in the house, it stands out very well in the sleeping area.

Designed by
Ettore Sottsass
Ettore Sottsass (1917-2007) is one of the key figures in the history of Italian design. Artist, designer and architect, he is considered one of the founding fathers of Radical Design and has had an incalculable influence on the development of the discipline. Born in Austria to a family of Trentino-Tyrolean origins (his father, Ettore Sottsass Senior, was a famous architect), he grew up and graduated in Turin and then opened his own studio in Milan. However, Sottsass considered himself a citizen of the world and traveled extensively: from New York, where he worked in George Nelson's studio, to India, visited with his wife Fernanda Pivano, another great protagonist of the cultural debate of the time, the greatest expert in American literature in all Italy. It was this great set of stimuli and influences that allowed him to develop a revolutionary style, dominated by bright colors and extreme shapes, in complete contrast with the functionalist dictates of post-war industrial design. Expressed through the artistic direction of the Tuscan brand Poltronova and the foundation of the Memphis group, a veritable hotbed of talents that would set the tone for the whole style of Italian design of the 1980s. However, Sottsass was not only a breakthrough figure, but also an impeccable professional: with his creations for Olivetti he was the protagonist of an avant-garde technological enterprise in the 1960s, while with his studio Sottsass Associati he signed products that entered the catalogs of brands such as Artemide, Alessi, Venini, Zanotta, Glas Italia, Kartell and many others.Read more
