DUE PIÙ ARMCHAIR
DUE PIÙ ARMCHAIR
Designed by Nanda Vigo
Nanda Vigo’s armchair known as Due Più is an astonishing, enigmatic object where the use of two rollers that look like they’re floating makes for truly unique features.
Futurist in aspect, we can see it as an emblematic design blending Vigo’s two souls: the esprit de géométrie that shines through the minimalist metallic structure with its light reflection, and an eccentric, pioneering spirit apparent in the use of Mongolian fur.
Currently presented by Acerbis with a steel frame and furs reclaimed from food industry waste, according to circular economy principles that make it compatible with contemporary ethics.
We are proud to announce that the Due Più armchair by Nanda Vigo won the Archiproducts Design Awards 2023.

DESIGNER - NANDA VIGO
Nanda Vigo (Milan, 1936 – 2020) lived in Milan and East Africa. She was interested in art from a very young age when she spent time in the company of Filippo de Pisis and when she saw the architecture of Giuseppe Terragni from whom she learnt to pay attention to light. After having graduated from the Institut Polytechnique, Lausanne, and having studied further in San Francisco, in 1959 she set up her own studio in Milan and exhibited her work in galleries and museums in Europe and Italy.
In 1965 she curated the legendary exhibition “ZERO avantgarde” in Lucio Fontana’s Milan studio. Vigo’s work is interdisciplinary, combining art, design, architecture and the environment, and she was involved with numerous projects as an architect, designer and artist. What distinguishes her lively career is attention to and research into Art, something which has pushed her to collaborate with some of the most significant figures of our time and to always undertake projects aimed at promoting Art.
