Caratos

«After 25 years of presenting products that use artisanal materials and processes, I felt the need to offer a “moulded” piece, a chair with a fusion structure, thanks to a significant industrial investment by the company. At the same time, I wanted it to be part of the Maxalto collection. Caratos is absolutely contemporary, but recalls some twentieth-century objects, echoing the idea of bronze, through a “full” opaque finishing that absorbs light, and the great quality of the leather upholstery, giving it a “saddlery” look.»
Antonio Citterio

Frame: Die-cast aluminium in Amber or Graphite finish. Seat and back: Polyurethane foam upholstered in fabric or leather. Origin: Italy.

Antonio Citterio is the creative director of Maxalto and the designer behind the brand's entire product range since its relaunch. His work for Maxalto occupies a distinct register from his other collaborations — more classical in reference, more sober in surface treatment, yet always precise in its proportions and material understanding.
