Lio Counter Stool
Made by Zanotta
Designed by Roberto Barbieri
Roberto Barbieri's Lio stool is built around a single die-cast aluminum element, a structural choice that gives the piece its characteristic lightness and geometric clarity. The frame is painted to a crisp finish, lending Lio an almost architectural presence without visual weight.
The upholstered seat introduces a considered contrast: softness where the body meets the form, comfort held within a disciplined silhouette. That tension between industrial precision and tactile warmth is central to the design's character.
