Antropus

Design Marco Zanuso

Theatrical modernity

The idea for Antropus originated in the late 1940s, when the Piccolo Teatro of Milan asked Marco Zanuso to design the sets and furnishings for the play “La Famiglia Antropus” [The Skin of Our Teeth] by Thornton Wilder. The renowned architect availed himself of the opportunity to craft a piece of furniture clad entirely in foam rubber, a highly innovative material at that time.

The ideal solution to contemporary decor needs in lounges, lobbies and executive offices, this armchair is a superb example of furnishings with excellent expressive, ergonomic and industrial potential. A timeless classic that renews its promise of modernity – contemporary from the 1940s to the present.

 Currently manufactured in polyurethane foam fill, the armchair is easily shaped into an amply sized, comfortable backrest and seat confined within the sharp, sinuous silhouette of the side panels.
