Zanotta Reissues Gomma, an Icon of 1970s Design

Zanotta has reissued the Gomma armchair, designed in 1970 by Jonathan De Pas, Donato D’Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi.

The Gomma armchair is not only an example of excellent design. It is also a reflection of the cultural and social context of the 1970s. At that time, design broke with conventions of the past to explore new frontiers. This innovative approach made the Gomma armchair a symbol of Italian design, and it is still able to evoke the dynamism and optimism of that era.

When they made the Gomma armchair, Jonathan De Pas, Donato D’Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi created a unique expressive language in the field of design that features a combination of simplicity and innovation.

This armchair is fun, irreverent and a symbol of the ability to push the limits of traditional design. The foam rubber structure of the Gomma armchair perfectly represents the philosophy of its designers. Foam rubber is so soft and flexible that it invites you to sit and relax, transforming the act of sitting into an enveloping and comfortable experience.
