The essence of comfort
Designed by Franco Albini and Franca Helg in 1959, Tre Pezzi epitomizes the modern wingback armchair. Its generous, enveloping, upholstered shapes blend minimalist concepts and the utmost comfort.
2009
In 1952, working with Franca Helg, his long-time assistant, Franco Albini designed Tre Pezzi, a contemporary restatement of the classic bergère chair. The chair is composed of a deep curved seat, a ring-shaped back rest and a half-moon head-rest, each of these geometric shapes standing out independently. Wide and welcoming, the upholstered sections combine clean-cut lines with total comfort. The tubular metal frame is cued on scaffolding poles, while the sideways curve of the armrests recalls the handrails on the Milan underground system, which were also the work of Albini and Helg. The outcome is an up-to-the-minute armchair with a strong visual impact revisited by Cassina in the utmost respect for the original.
The structure of the deep seat, U-shaped lumbar cushion and half-moon headrest translate the parts with different names and shapes into an integral principle of beauty and function.
The side curve of the tubular steel structure forms a graphic signature reminiscent of the handrails designed for Milan’s Metro subway. Cassina introduces a historic edition in red wool and black frame.
