In this creation by antonio citterio, a tubular steel base opens up into a slender, sophisticated structure upon which the fabric-upholstered padded shell rests, as if floating on air. Leather upholstery with hand-stitched legs and armrests makes this creation a perfect example of cassina’s attention to detail. The backrest, folded back onto the structure, produces an additional, more casual seating element, while the exposed screws on the legs, distinctive trait of the esosoft family, allow for easy disassembly of the base. Esosoft was developed with a keen eye to sustainability, employing circular materials, like polyurethane with a percentage of polyols derived from biological sources, and recycled pet wadding in the padding, while the base can be completely disassembled.

Padding polyurethane foam with a percentage of polyols derived from biological sources, covered in recycled pet wadding, removable fabric upholstery as if floating above the exoskeleton of the structure, a soft padded shell, upholstered in fabric, creates a roomy welcoming seat with a uniquely sinuous design. The esosoft armchair is informed by the timeless creativity of architect and designer antonio citterio and enters into dialogue with the other furniture in the collection. The particular curve of the backrest, which embraces the slender structure, lends shape to the back for an additional casual, light-hearted support upon which to perch. The exacting attention to detail that showcases the excellence of cassina products is highlighted in the leather-clad armrests embellished with hand-stitching that makes the armchair even more elegant and inviting. The esosoft armchair was designed with a focus on sustainability, utilising circular materials like polyurethane with a percentage of polyols derived from biological sources and recycled pet wadding in the padding. The base can be completely disassembled to facilitate recovery of the materials at the end of its life-cycle.
