Joe Plush Lounge Chair

Joe is a big comfortable chair in the form of a giant baseball glove, mounted on invisible wheels. With this project the designers, inspired by the poetics of Pop Art, gave material form to their admiration for the legendary American baseball star Joe DiMaggio. With a courageous shift of scale, they transformed the glove into a welcoming place to sit, inserting a hyperrealist figure borrowed from the world of art into the domestic environment.

To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the armchair Joe designed by DDL Studio, Centro Studi Poltronova has created four special editions for a must–have item which has never gone out of the catalogue. Joe Plush, entirely clad in high quality faux fur, aspires to becoming an interior decoration toy, very soft and embracing, and is dedicated to all those who have a dreamer’s soul.
