UP5 La Mamma UP 2000 Chair & UP6 Ball Ottoman by Gaetano Pesce for B&B ItaliaBeyond iconic and gorgeous! It was 1968 when Gaetano Pesce began experimenting at his Paris atelier with vacuum packing the hippest material of the moment: polyurethane. Soon hed developed a gravity defying model: a four inch thick disk that, when removed from its PVC envelope, would rise from the floor into a cushy armchair. Fittingly, he named it Up. The form that emerged was no typical seat. It's bulbous shape, inspired by silhouettes of ancient
Beyond iconic and gorgeous! It was 1968 when Gaetano Pesce began experimenting at his Paris atelier with vacuum-packing the hippest material of the moment: polyurethane. Soon he’d developed a gravity-defying model: a four-inch-thick disk that, when removed from its PVC envelope, would rise from the floor into a cushy armchair. Fittingly, he named it Up. The form that emerged was no typical seat. It's bulbous shape, inspired by silhouettes of ancient fertility goddesses and accompanied by an ottoman, was rife with meaning.
Pesce's vision was to create a seat that embodied the human form, with curves and contours that cradle and support the body. The UP5 chair and UP6 ottoman is Pesce's most famous designs and are often referred to as La Mamma, Big Mama, and Donna. It can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum of Art and Design and the Philidelphia Museum of Art.
