JOE SPECIAL EDITION

Joe is a big comfortable chair in the form of a giant baseball glove, mounted on invisible wheels. With this project the designers, inspired by the poetics of Pop Art, gave material form to their admiration for the legendary American baseball star Joe DiMaggio. With a courageous shift of scale, they transformed the glove into a welcoming place to sit, inserting a hyperrealist figure borrowed from the world of art into the domestic environment. To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the armchair Joe designed by DDL Studio, Centro Studi Poltronova has created four special editions for a must–have item which has never gone out of the catalogue. Joe Plush, entirely clad in high quality faux fur, aspires to becoming an interior decoration toy, very soft and embracing, and is dedicated to all those who have a dreamer’s soul. Joe Whip is made of black leather, it is a precious edition with an elaborate braiding which transforms the thumb into a fringe, and by similitude, into a whip, preserving all its Pop provocation. Joe Gold, made of leather but of course with a sparkling finish, is the party costume for a special anniversary. Different coating options available, please inquire with us. DIMENSIONS: 175[W] x 122[D] x 95[H] cm Ottoman available, please inquire with us.
