Brisbane to Madrid.
A client called from Spain, and two Ghost armchairs with the 50th Anniversary Onda stool by Fiam Italia are now in their home in Madrid — in front of the fireplace, with the art and the light they already had.
Onda came first. In 1973 Vittorio Livi formed a single sheet of curved glass so someone could sit by the bending ovens. It pushed against the idea that glass was too fragile for furniture, and that piece started the company. Fourteen years later Cini Boeri and Tomu Katayanagi designed Ghost — one continuous sheet, no frame, arms and back as a single line. Shown at the Salone in 1987, it became a reference for what curved glass could do.
Shaping spaces through considered design.
