Story
Three materials, one name
Minotti names the armchair after the three materials it combines, leather, fabric and wood, which it assigns to the seat, the backrest and the frame. The rationalist design of Marcio Kogan / Studio MK27 is joined, in Minotti's words, with its own manufacturing know-how.
Brazilian cabinet-making
The page links the multi-sectional woodwork of the frame to the typical refinement of Brazilian cabinet-making, and describes the polished armrests as giving a tactile sensation that the Trio Outdoor version echoes.
