Maserati chose to work in collaboration with Zanotta, an Italian furniture company to create a limited edition chair unveiled at the 2013 Salone del Mobile. The ‘Lounge Chair by Zanotta’ was inspired by the exterior form of the new Quattroporte.
“The approach to this project was firstly sharing the values of Maserati and Zanotta – values like style, elegance, quality and performance,” imparted designers Ludovica and Roberto Palomba.
“We took up the perspective image of a Maserati in the lines, retracing the fluid structure of the silhouette of the bonnet to give the mark of continuity.
“The leather covering has a very natural feel; the inspiration for this coming from the softness of the gloves of racing car drivers in the past.”
