Serie Up 2000 Armchair B&B Italia

Serie Up 2000 Armchair by GAETANO PESCE

The Serie Up 2000 armchair is undoubtedly an essential piece in the history of design. B&B Italia has created a range of seven pieces, among which the armchair with ottoman (UP5_6) stands out. It easily distinguishes itself with its recognizable form and contemporary representation of the female figure. This chair represents a unique blend of design and art, offering the wide public an innovative experience that showcases B&B Italia's extraordinary technological expertise in polyurethane injection molding.

The iconic UP5_6 armchair stands out within the extensive and original collection of B&B Italia armchairs, thanks to its unmistakable anthropomorphic references. Conceived as a wide maternal womb, this chair recalls the votive statues of fertility goddesses from ancient times. However, it features a distinctive element: a sphere that serves as an ottoman and is attached to the chair's body. This additional detail symbolizes a woman imprisoned by herself, with a ball and chain. Gaetano Pesce explains that with this chair, he wanted to convey his conception of a woman who has always, unwittingly, been a captive of herself, hence the choice of a form that resembles a woman with a ball and chain, also representing the traditional image of a prisoner.
