B&B Italia Up Armchair Outlet Price
The Up armchair by B&B Italia, designed by Gaetano Pesce in 1969, recently celebrated its 50th anniversary and stands as a true icon of Italian design worldwide. The Up series is not merely an armchair but a sensory experience that brings joy each time you look at it. Perfect for the living room, bedroom, or office, it adds originality and character to any space. The Up armchair evokes the characteristics and forms of the female anatomy, serving as a generous, nurturing, and comfortable seating experience. The accompanying pouf is spherical, attached to the armchair by a chain like a prisoner's ball and chain.
Gaetano Pesce explained this concept: "Woman has always been, despite herself, a prisoner of herself."
This duality is apparent when viewing the Up armchair: an image of comfort and relaxation layered with the figurative image of a woman with a ball and chain.
Pesce recounts the project: "At that time, I was sharing a personal story about my concept of womanhood… So I decided to give this armchair a female form with a ball and chain, also evoking the traditional image of a prisoner."
Over the years, the UP5_6 armchair has become a true international design icon, known by many names, from "Big Mama" to "Blow Up," and remains a highly sought-after piece that continues to adorn the most beautiful homes in Italy and worldwide.
