A creation where design becomes sculptural art
Designed by Italian designer Jacopo Foggini for Edra, the Ella chair stands at the crossroads of furniture and artistic expression. With its distinctive silhouette and assertive character, this creation embodies an approach to design in which material becomes emotion and every detail contributes to a truly visual experience.
More than a chair, Ella is a statement piece that captures the eye and transforms the space around it. Displayed alone in a contemporary interior, arranged around a dining table or placed in a living room as a functional work of art, it asserts a unique presence through its free and expressive aesthetic.
Created for collectors and lovers of rare design pieces, Ella reflects Edra’s ambition to continually push the boundaries between art, craftsmanship and contemporary furniture design.
The artistic vision of Jacopo Foggini
The son of artist Giuseppe Foggini, Jacopo Foggini has developed a creative world in which light, colour and material take centre stage. His work explores the expressive potential of synthetic materials, transforming them into organic forms with an almost precious quality.
With the Ella chair, the designer offers a vision far removed from the conventions of traditional furniture. The structure becomes a sculpture, while the material appears to capture and diffuse light. Each chair reveals a personality of its own, shaped by meticulous craftsmanship and an ongoing exploration of transparency and fluidity.
This approach resonates perfectly with the spirit of Edra, the renowned Italian design house celebrated for its experimental creations and exceptional craftsmanship, where each object transcends its original function to become a true presence within the space.
A material shaped like a work of art
The defining feature of the Ella chair is its hand-crafted polycarbonate shell, which gives each piece its unique appearance. Unlike standardised industrial production, every element bears the trace of the artisan’s hand and reveals subtle variations inherent to the material.
Its sculptural surface plays with reflections and light, creating ever-changing visual effects depending on its surroundings. The black swivel base introduces a refined and understated contrast, allowing the richness of the shell to take centre stage.
This fusion of technology, craftsmanship and imagination makes the Ella chair an exceptional design piece, equally at home in a minimalist interior or a more daring decorative setting.
