Description

Imagined and designed by Achille Castiglioni in 1970, Primate is an unusual piece, halfway between a conceptual object and a piece of furniture. The designer, known for constantly reinventing the way people sit, here presents a kneeling chair. You sit on the upper part while resting your knees on the lower part. Achille Castiglioni has created an iconic piece, produced by Zanotta, which overturns the conventions of the traditional armchair and our ideas of comfort. Primate is upholstered in flexible polyurethane and covered with an Eco coating. The two parts are connected by a stainless-steel rod and rest on a black polystyrene base. Primate is now part of the permanent collection of many museums.

Achille CASTIGLIONI

Born in Milan in 1918, Achille Castiglioni, like his brother Pier Giacomo, studied architecture at the Milan Polytechnic. He graduated in 1944 and joined his two older brothers in their design studio in Milan. Their work stands out for its particular conception of products through a logical analysis of the functions that the object must fulfil and the means to achieve this. The design, which is very pure, comes next to enable the object to perform its functions. Between 1950 and 1960, the Castiglioni brothers designed a number of products for major brands such as Flos, which produced the Arco floor lamp, a design classic, and Zanotta, for which they created the famous Mezzadro stool with a tractor saddle. The death of Pier Giacomo in 1968 put an end to the collaborations. When his brother died, Achille Castiglioni continued to design products such as the Lampadina and the Scrittarello desk. He also devotes much of his time to teaching design, first in Turin and then in Milan.
