Paola Lenti reissues Lina Bo Bardi's Azul lounge chair originally designed for Casa de Vidro
The Azul lounge chair, a creation of modernist architect Lina Bo Bardi for her São Paulo home, has made a comeback thanks to Paola Lenti. Bo Bardi designed it for her residence, Casa de Vidro, which is now the Instituto Lina Bo e PM Bardi. After spotting the chair in a living room photo, Paola Lenti, the founder, was struck by its elegant simplicity and how it connects with art and nature. With approval from the foundation, the chair features a sleek tubular metal frame and textile belts for cushion support. Constructed from stainless steel and rope yarn, it's available in various colors for indoor and outdoor use. The chair measures 600 x 880 x 800 millimeters and can be ordered via Paola Lenti's channels.
