Description

The Caratos chair by Maxalto stands out for the elegance of its structure, basic and geometric, extremely calibrated in thickness and detail, made from graphite or amber varnished die-cast aluminium. Designed by Antonion Citterio, the Caratos chair is resolutely lightweight, not only because of its essential, linear design, but also for the reduced weight that makes it easy to handle. The seat and back of Caratos use structural panels made of plastic material to which a layer of leather-covered polyurethane has been applied.

Antonio CITTERIO

Born in 1950 in Meda, Italy, he studied architecture at the Milan Polytechnic. Antonio Citterio began working as a designer and industrial design consultant in 1972. From 1987 to 1996 he created the Citterio/Dwan studio in association with Terry Dwan. From 1990 to 1992, Antonio Citterio was a lecturer at the Domus Academy in Milan, from 1993 to 1995 he was an external examiner for furniture design at Royal College London, and in 1997 he taught at La Sapienza University in Rome. In 1999, together with Patricia Viel, he founded the multidisciplinary design agency "Antonio Citterio and Partners" in Milan, and from 1999 to 2002 he taught at the architecture faculty of the Università della Svizzera Italiana. He has held a chair there again since 2006. Antonio Citterio has received numerous awards, including the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures & Commerce in London. He is one of Italy's most famous designers, with his many and extremely varied creations. It uses the aesthetics of new materials and the performance of new technologies to create its own timeless style. He works mainly with the leading Italian furniture brand B&B Italia, but also with publishers such as Kartell (Battista, Flip and Gastone desks), Vitra (Grand Repos armchair) and Flos (Kelvin Led).

MAXALTO

When industry collides with artisanal excellence, success is achieved. 
Maxalto's story began in 1975, a story intimately linked to architects Afra and Tobia Scarpa, who not only designed all collections up to 1992, but also the current factory. Home furnishings designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa were rapidly recognised as a benchmark in Italian design. A collection of prestigious wooden furniture 100% "Made in Italy". The choice to use wood was counter-current and very bold during the "age of plastic", in which tastes were moving towards new experimentation.
