Sedia Tre Pezzi
Made by Cassina
Designed by Franco Albini
Capolavoro del modernismo di metà secolo, la sedia Tre Pezzi rappresenta l'innovativo design del 1952 di Franco Albini e Franca Helg, una raffinata interpretazione della tradizione bergère. La precisione geometrica ne definisce l'architettura: una seduta curva generosamente proporzionata, uno schienale scultoreo ad anello e un poggiatesta a mezzaluna dominano la scena visiva. La struttura imbottita bilancia un'estetica minimalista con un comfort avvolgente, mentre la struttura in acciaio tubolare si ispira alle impalcature industriali e agli iconici corrimani di Milano. La produzione contemporanea di Cassina onora la visione originale di Albini con una meticolosa maestria artigianale, offrendo un pezzo che unisce perfettamente l'eleganza funzionale con un'autorità di design senza tempo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the Cassina Tre Pezzi Chair?
The Tre Pezzi was designed by Franco Albini in collaboration with architect Franca Helg in 1952. The design was produced by Cassina and is now part of their I Maestri collection, which preserves landmark works of twentieth-century Italian design.
What does 'Tre Pezzi' mean and why is the name significant?
Tre Pezzi is Italian for 'three pieces,' referring to the chair's three structurally and visually independent elements: the seat shell, the ring-shaped backrest, and the crescent headrest. This compositional logic was a deliberate departure from the unified, upholstered mass of a traditional bergère.
What is the Cassina I Maestri collection?
I Maestri is Cassina's archive of furniture designed by historically significant architects and designers, including Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, Gerrit Rietveld, and Franco Albini. Each piece is produced under strict historical and material fidelity to the original design.
Is the Tre Pezzi available in custom upholstery?
As a made-to-order piece, the Tre Pezzi is typically available in a range of Cassina's specified fabrics and leathers. Configuration options should be confirmed with an authorized representative, as selections may vary by market.
How does the Tre Pezzi relate to Franco Albini's broader design philosophy?
Albini consistently pursued a rigorous clarity of structure, making the constructive logic of his objects visible and legible. The Tre Pezzi reflects this sensibility by separating the chair into anatomically distinct components, each with its own identity, while the tubular steel frame references the industrial civic forms he admired in Milan's urban fabric.
