Zampa is a vibrant yellow chair defined by energy, playfulness, and expressive form. Its design draws inspiration from the idea of a paw, evoking the presence of a playful animal and translating it into a functional yet sculptural seating object.
The piece explores how familiar gestures and natural references can be transformed into design language, creating an object that feels both approachable and imaginative. Its bold yellow colour reinforces this sense of joy and immediacy, establishing a strong visual presence that brightens any environment.
Zampa is conceived as an object that bridges function and emotion, offering not only a place to sit but also a moment of visual and emotional interaction. Its character makes it suitable for both domestic and public contexts, from living spaces to more playful or informal environments, such as children’s areas.
The chair is produced using traditional construction techniques derived from the craftsmanship of Viareggio carnival floats. This method allows for the creation of lightweight yet structurally stable forms, enabling expressive volumes while maintaining durability and functional integrity. Through this approach, Zampa combines artisanal knowledge with contemporary design sensibility, resulting in a piece that is both technical and poetic in its construction.
Zampa is a handcrafted yellow chair made using Viareggio carnival float techniques. Lightweight internal structure with durable construction and sculptural form inspired by an animal paw.
