Fosca Chair
The Pianca Fosca Chair by Cristina Celestino reinterprets the traditional Venetian gondola chair through a compact upholstered form.
The back curves around the seat to form low arms, while openings at the sides interrupt the solid volume. Exposed legs complete the silhouette, giving the enveloping upper section a lighter stance.
Every detail, considered.
