Design by Patricia Urquiola, 2008.
By Moroso.
Introduced in 2008, Patricia Urquiola's Tropicalia Collection combines the remarkable silhouettes of the designer's Antibodi Collection with woven thread seating. The Collection features a tubular steel base in complex geometric shapes, embellished with a clever weft of threads that alternate solids and voids to a specific pattern. Each object in the Collection takes on a different personality depending upon the material and color used. Select from a range of polymer thread color combinations for a playful, cheerful piece or build a sophisticated style with tan woven leather cording. Offered in a Chaise, Lounge Chair, Armchair, Chair, outdoor Day Bed or Cocoon swinging nest.
The Tropicalia Collection was designed by Patricia Urquiola in 2007. Select from five frames offered in Tan Leather cording or colorful Polymer cording options with stainless or varnished steel base.
