On the occasion of the Milan Furniture Fair 2016 and thanks to the original designs conserved at the Polytechnic University of Milan and rendered available by the Archivio Bottoni, Zanotta reconstructed and put into production the Fenice, the first modern table with a central leg, designed in 1936, twenty years prior to the appearance of tables with similar supports in furniture catalogues.
BRAND HIGHLIGHT
When Aurelio Zanotta opened the doors to his eponymous label in 1954, its initial focus was on the production of sofas and armchairs which, at the time, were overwhelmingly the domain of upholstery workshops. But Zanotta’s vision far exceeded the largely utilitarian scope of local upholsterers. Beyond its surface functionality, he recognizedin furniture design a new form of cultural expression—a venerable creative outlet worthy of the same respect afforded to traditional artistic exploits like painting and sculpture.
