Paravento Balla

$14,563

Made by Cassina

Designed by Giacomo Balla

In 1917, Giacomo Balla designed a folding screen that was, above all, a proposition. As one of Italian Futurism's most committed voices, Balla believed the aesthetic convictions of an avant-garde movement belonged in the domestic interior, not only on the gallery wall. This three-panel screen was his answer.

The composition centers on a vivid orange ground animated by interlocking green and yellow geometric motifs, a palette that reads as both period-specific and perpetually alive. Cassina's reissue preserves Balla's original compositional logic without revision, adding satin brass hinges that carry the warmth of the color fields into the object's architecture.

  • Three-panel folding screen configuration
  • Orange ground with green and yellow geometric motifs
  • Satin brass hinges
  • Originally designed by Giacomo Balla, 1917
  • Reissued by Cassina as part of the I Maestri collection

The Paravento Balla occupies a room the way a painting occupies a wall: with intention. It is a piece of furniture that carries its historical moment without being diminished by it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Paravento Balla and when?

The Paravento Balla was designed by Giacomo Balla in 1917. Balla was a leading figure of Italian Futurism, known for his exploration of motion, light, and color in both fine art and applied design.
