Ponto Armchair

Ponto

Ponto is an armchair made for small spaces and varied interiors. The design uses few elements. A single long curved line forms the structure, the arms and the backrest. The seat and backrest are upholstered, and the anatomic form of the seat supports comfort. The outer structure is made of solid turned wood, and a metal tubular core reinforces the arms. A metal tubular support in an X shape holds the seat. Different types and colors of wood can be combined at the joints of the turned parts. Ponto is part of a family of seats.

Ponto Armchair by Roberta Banqueri was highlighted as a creative representation of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Ponto Armchair was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2020. The A' Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious international design prize that rewards superior design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
