Tacchini - T'22 Collection

Lagoa (Armchair)

W 90 D 74 H 78 cm

H seat 33 cm

Zanini de Zanine, the famous Brazilian designer, son of architect

and designer José Zanine Caldas, creates an absolutely original

model, conceived exclusively for Tacchini: Lagoa. Its soft, rounded

forms surround a suspended seat that gives a marked contrast in terms

of thickness. The ends of the seat slot into the sides of the structure,

disappearing into a seamless natural embrace. A piece that shows

brilliant, original creativity, drawing inspiration from the softness of the

Carioca tradition, with an all-new visionary spirit.

Zanini de Zanine, der berühmte brasilianische Designer, Sohn

des Architekten und Designers José Zanine Caldas, entwirft exklusiv für

Tacchini ein absolut einzigartiges Modell, Lagoa. Ein Sessel mit einem

weichen, halbrunden Volumen, das eine schwebende Sitzfläche hält, de-

ren geringe Dicke in starkem Kontrast zu der breiten Rundung der Struktur

steht. Der Rand des Sitzes verschwindet in den Seiten der halbrunden

Struktur, die den Sitz ganz einfach, in kontinuierlicher Linie umarmt. Ein

Design von brillanter, einzigartiger Kreativität, die sich an der weichen

Schmiegsamkeit der brasilianischen Tradition inspiriert, und zwar mit ei-

nem völlig neuen, visionären Geist.

José Zanine Caldas, Zanini de Zanine, a conçu Lagoa, un modèle absolu-

ment nouveau, en exclusivité pour Tacchini. Ce fauteuil au volume

doux et arrondi accueille une assise suspendue d’une épaisseur fortement

contrastée. Les extrémités du siège sont insérées dans les flancs de

la structure, disparaissant dans une étreinte naturelle sans solution

de continuité. Cette pièce d’une créativité brillante et inédite puise son

inspiration dans la douceur de la tradition carioca, avec un esprit vision-

naire entièrement nouveau.

Zanini De Zanine

Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1978, Zanini de Zanine grew

up watching his father, José Zanine Caldas work.

He trained with Sergio Rodrigues, when he produced

his first mobile. In 2002 he graduated in Industrial

Design at PUC-Rio. From 2003, he began producing solid

wood furniture, with pieces of demolition – columns,

beams and posts of old houses – baptized as “Contem-

porary Carpentry.” From 2005, he began to create a

new line of furniture pieces produced industrially using

controlled origin wood and different materials such as

plastic, acrylic, metals and other parts of manufactured

products. To represent this new furniture line, Zanini

creates in 2011 Studio Zanini.
