Pancake is the new system of the Pop collection designed by Basaglia + Rota Nodari

The Pancake bookcase, benches, consoles and reception desks (design Basaglia + Rota Nodari) are part of the Pop collection, the first line of furniture presented by VittEr Design entirely made of VittEr, an exclusive new generation compact laminate without formaldehyde and antibacterial of the research of Filippi 1971, parent company of the brand. The system has a strong personality and is defined by the sinuous and soft lines of the tops which, when superimposed, make up the various elements. Both in the total white and in the color version, one of the characteristics of VittEr stands out, a “full color” material, from the heart to the surface, from the first to the last layer. In addition, it is completely recyclable, renewable and eco-sustainable (it is produced with FSC-certified cellulose-based papers and without the use of additional resins or glues). All this makes Pancake, with other brand proposals, an “intelligent” product for the connection between material and finished product and for sustainability. The Pancake system is therefore an original solution, made up of elements with a clear functional, aesthetic, semantic dignity, able to tell the space in which they are inserted: residential or hotels, shops, restaurants.

At a glance

What is it?
The Pancake furniture system, consisting of a bookcase, benches, consoles and reception desks, is an original furnishing solution with clear functionality, aesthetics and semantics, able to tell the space in which it is inserted.
What is the design concept?
The system, and the entire Pop collection to which it belongs, were created to enhance and give maximum expression to the new generation VittEr laminate. Pancake is an iconic and contemporary product, defined by a rhythmic and engaging design, with a strong personality.
How is it made and from what materials?
The Pancake system is defined by the sinuous and soft lines of the tops which, when superimposed, make up the various elements. Like the other components of the Pop collection, Pancake is also made entirely of VittEr, the exclusive new generation compact laminate without formaldehyde, antibacterial and eco-sustainable, the result of the continuous research of Filippi 1971, parent company of the VittEr Design brand.
How is it produced and where?
Pancake, and also the VittEr material, are made in Italy products, made in Berbenno (Bg), at the Filippi 1971 headquarters from which the VittEr Design brand was born in 2020.
How is it manufactured?
The creation of VittEr, the production, assembly, shaping and finishing of each single product (the latter two made by an expert carpenter) are internal activities of the company. The combination of the industrial component in the production process and craftsmanship in the attention to detail make each VittEr Design piece an expression of the company's production capacity and of the best made in Italy.
What makes it special?
The main innovation is in the connection between material and product: the latter was created to give shape to the potential of VittEr, the new generation laminate, the beating heart of the brand. The product embodies all the performance of the material: absence of formaldehyde, antibacterial, resistant, suitable for outdoor use and for direct contact with food, eco-sustainable and the "full color" feature that leads it to have an appearance similar to that of solid materials.
How is it?
Iconic, dynamic and eco-sustainable.
In the designer’s own words
The Pop collection, of which the Pancake system is part, looks at the cultural experiences of the 80s but reinterprets them with the gaze of the present, exploiting the technical characteristics of VittEr to transform them into a simple and direct expressive language.
