One, ten, a hundred, a thousand Mammamia! The name resonates like an exclamation of surprise at such versatility. Mammamia, the seating collection designed by Marcello Ziliani, includes stackable and non-stackable chairs, with or without armrests, in classic four-leg versions or with a sled base, rigid or upholstered.
Mammamia features an ergonomic, welcoming profile and a lightweight structure. Its design is young and informal, with soft, sinuous lines: a balance that gives it a harmonious, appealing and distinctive presence.
Glossy or matt, refined or more expressive in character, it can be enhanced with delicate leaf finishes – in gold, silver or copper – hand-polished in the mirror version, or made vibrant through a wide range of RAL colours. Alternatively, it can take on a more tactile, almost mineral quality when finished with the innovative Corkcrete, an ecological mortar that combines cork and water-based natural resins.
The seat is also available upholstered in a wide range of fabrics and leathers, adding a refined and distinctive touch. The variations are virtually endless for this chair, featuring a die-cast aluminium shell and a steel structure, a design that shows no intention of stopping to surprise. Thanks to its many expressions, Mammamia fits naturally into a wide range of settings, from contemporary or minimalist interiors to more classic or sophisticated environments. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, it proves to be a versatile and reliable choice. Certified UNI-EN 16139:2013 for strength, durability and safety in contract seating, it is suitable for both residential and professional spaces.
" Designing
Mammamia was first of all to pay a tribute. In creating a chair, the reference
to the masters is obviously inevitable, and I felt it was a good idea to
celebrate the Eames plastic side chair with a project that recaptured its
elegance and proportions, however, introducing a substantial element of
innovation such as the use of aluminium die-casting. This choice has allowed to
reduce the thickness of the body to "extreme" sections of only 4 mm,
but at the same time to obtain solidity in order to allow the use of the long
and thin steel legs, giving lightness to the furniture. The chair is very thin
and almost two-dimensional, but at the same time it is very solid and extremely
comfortable."
