Most executive chairs have one personality and defend it. Italia declares three: Steel, industrial with its exposed steel frame; Extra Soft, enveloping in generous padding; Flat, minimal by subtraction. Same silhouette by Favaretto & Partners, same shaped curves and visible stitching — three different rooms in mind. Luxy calls it its icon, and gave it the most demanding name in the catalogue.
The substance is declared: high-resistance steel rod frame, a steel insert inside the dual-density fire-retardant foam, UNI EN 1335 Type B conformity and fatigue testing on the record. High or medium back, five bases and castors to choose — and the Meraviglia meeting chair to complete the family in meeting and waiting rooms.
