Description
Overview
Baobab is a cosy armchair by Lievore Altherr Molina for Tacchini, with a strong personality. Aesthetically pure shapes and differing volumes come together in novel contrasts and comfortable harmonies, and the armchair is pleasantly comfortable and inviting.

An internal wooden frame carries multi-density polyurethane foam padding. The base is fitted with wheels, with upholstery in fabric or leather, chosen from the fabric and leather lists.
Specifications
Code 0BBAPL080 measures 80 x 77 x 69 cm (W x D x H).
Story
A humanistic approach
Baobab comes from the Lievore Altherr Molina studio and reflects its humanistic approach to design: a careful search for beautiful, pure shapes that emerge from functional, technological and contextual constraints.
Full seat, thin backrest
The full, rounded volume of the seat contrasts with the thin, more geometric profile of the backrest. The outcome is an armchair with plenty of personality that is also comfortable and inviting.
