Typo Lounge Chair & Ottoman
An evolution of the Typo chair, this lounge model retains its original design while enhancing its comfort and sophistication. Distinctive is the square-section metal tube that gives shape to the structure, in a play of folds and creases that highlight Mara’s expertise in metalworking.

The project to redesign the San Pellegrino bottling plant is organized into four key themes: to be natural, to be pure, to be conscientious, to be cool.To be natural, regarding the environment. Coming from the valley the first impact is a green bridge, that enables trucks to enter without passing through the inhabited village. The bridge is an extension of nature and flora that crosses the river Brembo.

The plant is redesigned using... More
