Zanotta, in collaboration with the festival Weekendoit and the showroom Contemporaneo has promoted a contest of ideas involving a selection of professional Italian illustrators for realizing 4 new coverings for the Sacco’s 50th anniversary.
This initiative aims to underline once more the pop aspect that has been
featuring this design icon since 1968 when it was conceived.
Weekendoit
is the first festival in Italy dedicated to sharing and learning the artisanal,
traditional and ground-breaking techniques.
The event,
now in its fifth edition, is held within the building of Mole Vanvitelliana in
Ancona and encourages the values of handmade culture and the design, proposing
to shorten the gap among the audience, craftsmanship and companies thanks to a
broad programme of workshops, both practical and theoretical, laboratories,
market, events, shows, formation and network.
Here are
the selected illustrators to design the new covering for the Sacco easy chairs:
