The Nido Lounge Chair mimics the shape of a bird's nest, creating a space to unwind and relax. Its circular form is unique in shape, and sits in contrast to its simple, linear legs.

Because of its extreme lightness, fiberglass is suitable for indoor use. However, it is also resistant to rain and sunlight, making it ideal for outdoor use, too.

Each chair is made from a mold but is then hand-sanded, painted, and polished. This manufacturing process ensures every Nido is unique, peculiar, and individual

A seat of enfolding elegance. An armchair that welcomes and clasps like a precious shell in which to take shelter. A nest, whose different finishes can give iridescent and metallic reflections, silky matt black and white or the naked beauty of the raw material. Perfect in a living room, as well as in any corner where you want to recreate an intimate and private space, where you can abandon yourself to the most relaxing break.

Finishes:  Fiberglass seat in white, black, copper, gold, chrome, or iridescent. Metal legs.

Imperfettolab

“Imperfetto” not as imprecision, but rather as something unique and exclusive, embodies the objects il laboratorio dell’imperfetto designs and produces in its artistic workshop in Gambettola (FC). The collection of designed objects and furniture, inspired by the imperfections of the raw materials, wants to express a synthesis between natural and artificial elements, becoming familiar and domestic.

Each piece is made from a common mould, which is then sanded, painted, and hand-polished. The working process differs for each type of object, thus becoming unique in its genre. Thanks to such a personalized approach to items, they acquire identity and uniqueness, as well as show exceptional attention to details that derives from an expert and skillful craftsmanship.

The names given to each item recall the world of nature, such as Bulbi (bulbs), Gusci (shells), Ciottoli (pebbles); shapes and dimension reveal the talents employed at il laboratorio dell’imperfetto, where resin gives a shape to every idea and is “a modern gift from King Midas by Verter Turroni, who after many years of experimenting, has learned to make the most of this material in all its possible metamorphosis."

Imperfettolab is the trademark of Verter Turroni and Emanuela Ravelli’s design and production.

Imperfettogallery is a branch of il laboratorio dell’imperfetto that promotes a wide range of art research projects, and organizes exhibitions and performances. Since 2001, it has been a place where artists can experiment with and validate their work.
