NEW LADY Collection

Paolo Rizzatto, 2018

NEW LADY is the original interpretation by Alias of contemporary seats for the home; a small armchair in which shell and structure, seemingly separate from the formal standpoint, blend into a single design, as simple as it is powerful.

About
NEW LADY

Paolo Rizzatto designed an enveloping shell, fully covered with leather and accompanied with comfortable cushions.
NEW LADY was designed with the utmost attention to detail: the stitching in the contours of the shell and the details of the various bases recall the world of industrial craftsmanship, where “handmade” is combined with highly sophisticated technology.
The seat can be supported by a rotating tripod in die-cast aluminium furnished with a visible damping mechanism, solid oak legs or the elegant chalice-shaped base.
