At the Salone del Mobile 2023, Porro continues to weave its own story on space, taking up the line of design thinking capable of evolving one step after another for almost 100 years.
Thin thicknesses, movement, transparencies and new finishes distinguish the evolution of the company's systems, furnishings with everyday functionality and concreteness, new classics from which you can never part, such as the Romby armchair, which will already be familiar to the most attentive.
The new Porro product at Milan Design Week 2023: Romby armchair, design by GamFratesi 2023
A new reference </ strong> to all intents and purposes, but with something already known.
The Romby Armchair by Porro was in fact born from the evolution of the chair of the same name designed by GamFratesi in 2020 and quickly became the Porro design.
The geometric purity of the original today takes on softer, welcoming shapes, capable of transferring comfort and warmth: as one would expect from an armchair.
However, the manufacturing excellence and artisan flavor that define the brand remain unchanged.
The shapes of the upholstered shell seem to blossom, they widen and rise to create the armrests, releasing a new sensation of softness and naturalness, without losing the lightness and essentiality of the original model.
The truncated cone base instead leaves the field to the practicality of 4 central wooden legs, a sort of change of clothes with the visual effect of a full suspended upper volume that seems to take flight, in the name of hospitality and functionality.
