campeggi http://www.campeggisrl.it --- 'pezzotto' is the name given to a particular rug where the warp is in yarn and the weft in woollen, cotton and silk strips. 'pezzotto' is mainly characterized by its mechanical resistance, its ability to retain its shape and its particular resistance to dust and stains. moreover, it is unique as no two pieces are alike. vico magistretti has chosen a 'pezzotto' to create 'magellano'. the idea lying behind this project is that of the gesture of laying a unique cover, which is precious without being showy, on a simple structure searching for the utmost constructive simplicity. for the first time a sofa can do without a tailor and it is the shape that adapts to the cover. ‘magellano’ by vico magistretti vico magistretti, courtesy campeggi vico magistretti, courtesy campeggi ‘magellano’ sleeping sofa and ‘pezzotto’ rug detail of ‘magellano’ back to the main page ----------------------------------------------- --- ------- monthly designboom newsletter ------- ------- ? comments and contact us ? -------
