Articulate and complex shapes, but which once understood can astonish owing to the constructive intelligence of a perfect mechanism where every element slots together, matching, twinlike with precision to the others, through precise (and custom-design) metal joint systems. True masterpieces, like the Reale table, created with a compact, transparent skeleton embellished with a crystal top that seems to frame it.
In the mid Eighties Zanotta came across Carlo Mollino’s work and began producing certain items of furniture designed by this eclectic architect from Turin. Critically refusing International Stylistic theories, Mollino proposed a new poetical language by privileging organic and sentimental shapes and the use of natural materials such as wood. Mollino’s works are a concentrate of imagination and irony. In 1990 Zanotta re-edited the table Reale designed in 1947 for the offices of the Reale Mutua insurance firm in Turin. With the production of the Reale, Zanotta gives continuity to the research undertaken to recover objects from the past, representing key moments in the history of architecture and Italian design.
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.

DESIGNED BY
Carlo Mollino
Born in Turin in 1905, he received his degree in architecture in 1931 and his career was highly diversified, covering architecture, design, interior decorating and town-planning. Among these, he designed a wide variety of furniture of all types: he even invented new kinds of furniture. But he also created planes and cars.
