Lia Dining Chair
Roberto Barbieri designed the Lia for Zanotta between 1998 and 1999, approaching the dining chair as a problem of structural economy. The side frame, formed from a single die-cast aluminum alloy element, absorbs the front leg, rear leg, and backrest into one continuous gesture. Nothing is concealed. The logic of the form is the form itself.
The frame is available polished or painted in talc, graphite, or black. Seat, back, and armrests are upholstered in polyurethane, finished with removable fabric or leather covers, or non-removable cowhide. That flexibility of surface allows the chair to read differently across contexts, from a formal dining room to a hospitality or workplace setting, while the aluminum structure remains constant.
- Single die-cast aluminum alloy side element integrating leg and backrest
- Frame finishes: polished, talc, graphite, or black
- Removable fabric or leather upholstery, or fixed cowhide
- Suited to residential dining, hospitality, and professional environments
