Azucena ABCD Two-Seat Sofa by Luigi Caccia Dominioni

About the Item

The greatest designers know only too well that success lies in the detail. Luigi Caccia Dominioni took a forensic interest in all his work, whether a large-scale architectural project or a piece of furniture. The ABCD armchair is the acme of design and it continues to surprise us today. Through subtle changes to Caccia Dominioni’s original concept and drawing, this very traditional reading chair has been updated to meet the needs of contemporary living. ABCD is at once classic and timeless - memorable for its fine details. It is easy to move thanks to two small wheels yet retains its stability. The back legs differ in shape to the front ones in a playful nod to the chair’s square, octagonal and circular forms that are not apparent at first glance. The upholstery studs play a technical and decorative role -invisible from the front but offering a contrasting outline when seen from the side. A nod at Pop Art that Roy Lichtenstein would have approved of. Technical specifications: Internal frame solid wood. Panel MDF wood fiber. Upholstery shaped polyurethane of different density, polyester fibre cover Feet stained solid wood. Front wheels painted aluminum and plastic material. Studs painted aluminum. Cover fabric or leather. The product is conformable at: EN 16139 Strength, durability and safety, requirements for non-domestic seating. Please note our pieces are only available for sale in the United States.

  • Azucena Toro Armchair by Luigi Caccia Dominioni
    By Azucena, Luigi Caccia Dominioni
    Located in Novedrate, IT
    Designed for the Monticello country club on the outskirts of Milan, the Toro sofa and armchair can be admired from every angle and confidently take up centre stage. Why Toro - bull in Italian? Because you can literally “take it by the horns” thanks to the metal frame emerging through the padding. The seat arms terminate in handles that allow you to move and rotate the furniture with consummate ease. The Milanese country club guests used to configure and reconfigure the seating as required, moving them closer together to converse or further apart for peace and quiet. These bulls are docile and easy to handle. More like Sitting Bull, the legendary Sioux leader who features in so many films and Italian cartoon...

  • Azucena Catilina Upholstered Stool by Luigi Caccia Dominioni
    By Azucena, Luigi Caccia Dominioni
    Located in Novedrate, IT
    From the moment it was first presented at the XI Triennale in Milan in 1953, Catilina became one of Luigi Caccia Dominioni’s classics. He loved the design so much that guests in his studio would settle down by his desk to chat in these chairs. At first glance you would be forgiven for assuming this unusual object to be unfinished. Instead Caccia Dominioni created both a new chair and defined how to sit in it. Catilina is not designed for relaxation and letting go but for thoughtfulness and elegance. You could almost be transported back to ancient Rome ensconced in the seat of the Roman senator, Lucio Sergio Catilina, after whom the chair is named. In turn, the chair harks back to medieval thrones...
