Getsuen Armchair

Their non-conventional debut in 1987 was based around the "I Nuovissimi" collection, furniture pieces conceived by young, relatively unknown designers. The company grew rapidly with its innovative approach and art direction of Milan-based architect Massimo Morozzi. The aptitude of talent scouts has allowed the company to bring together some of the most interesting new designers, such as Alessandro Mendini, Masanori Umeda from Japan, Francesco Binfaré, Fernando and Humbero Campana from Brazil, Ross Lovegrove from Wales, and some top architects, such as Zaha Hadid and the Australian studio Denton Corker and Marshall to develop products that are grounded in fresh, contemporary ideas. Flexible in its organisation, Edra makes resourceful use of the skills of its local area to create innovative products, at times revolutionising classic upholstered furniture.
