Thinking Man Chair by Jasper Morrison
London, 1987 – Giulio Cappellini is visiting an exposition in the Aram Designs store and comes across a chair that was “only structure”, with no closed surfaces. Or, as some say, he saw it in a Domus article.

Proust Chair by Alessandro Mendini
One of the most famous design pieces in the world.
