Sintesi - Adriano Tolomei - Armchair - Baba Synthesis - printed polypropylene

Adriano Tolomei – Swivel Armchair “Baba Sintesi” Beautiful swivel armchair model “Baba Sintesi”, designed by Adriano Tolomei for BBB Italia, a significant expression of the plastic and formal research of Italian design in the late 20th century. Made of rotationally molded polypropylene, the monoblock shell stands out for its continuous and fluid silhouette, where seat, backrest and armrests merge into a single organic form. The result is a piece with a strong sculptural impact, capable of combining ergonomics and aesthetic presence with great balance. The rear opening defines the rhythm of the structure, visually lightening its volume and accentuating its dynamic tension, in line with the Italian space-age and postmodern design language of the 1970s/1980s. The central metal base features a gas lift column with height adjustment and swivel function, elements that ensure comfort and versatility of use, making the seat suitable for both sophisticated domestic interiors and professional and creative contexts. An authentic piece and increasingly sought after, reflecting a phase of great material and design experimentation in Italian design, today appreciated by collectors and interior designers. Condition In good overall condition, with patina consistent with age and use. Surface signs on the shell and on the metal base, which do not compromise stability and functionality. Solid structure, perfectly functioning mechanism.
