In 1970 Zanotta put the “springy metal seat”, metaphorically named “Mezzadro” into production, that the brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni designed in 1957 (together with the Sella seat, in production since 1983) for the exhibition “Shapes and colours in today’s homes” organized in Villa Olmo in Como. 

“With this rather unusual homage name, the object brings to mind Neo Vanguardism, from the provocative nature of Arte Povera to the irony of Pop Art. Like a work by Duchamp, the assembly of craft-based and industrial components holds together: the farming world in the sheet metal seat and the steel crossbow, the cycling world in the fixing pin and the nautical one in the beechwood crosspiece.”

Mezzadro is a loud and clear message of freedom to define the domestic spatial environment.

Stool with a chrome-plated steel stem and an aluminum seat, lacquered in a choice of colours. The footrest is steam-treated beech.

W49 x D51 x H51 cm. 

Made in Italy.
