The small armchair Pigreco is the first product designed by Tobia Scarpa, conceived in 1959 as a final project for his architecture studies at the University of Venice. With this project, he wanted to create an object that conveyed a "feeling of space". The conditions necessary for the technical realisation of Pigreco led Scarpa to design a seat technically composed of four legs, two of them very close together, to guarantee the chair's solidity, while remaining faithful to the concept that originally inspired it: the triangle. Pigreco still stands out today thanks to its characteristic legs, joined by a simple horizontal element that increases the solidity of the seat structure. Tacchini presents the new edition of the Pigreco chair in new finishes and materials to adapt it to the context of today's homes. The curved backrest and triangular leg arrangement create a chair that's enveloping, graphic and perfectly balanced.
Tacchini is an Italian designer furniture brand created in 1967 by Antonio Tacchini, at a time when Italian design was disrupting global design. It went on to become the leading institution in terms of quality and creativity. The strength of its concept is found at every step of Tacchini Italia's creative process. The brand goes so far as to explain this in their own words: "from the abstraction of thought to the three-dimensional nature of the object, to embody the essence of the home." A family business passed down the generations, Tacchini Italia is constantly progressing; it ensures ties with contemporary style, enhanced by the choice of high-quality materials and ever-improving technologies.
