THE STORY
Where does the name come from?
The FOOI metal bench, whose name originates from the local dialect of Reggio Emilia, meaning "foglio" or "sheet," is a collaborative masterpiece by Stefano Lodesani Studio in partnership with Silvio Bordoni.
The genesis of the FOOI steel armchair is a testament to the beauty of transformation and sustainability. It breathes life into a single sheet of reclaimed steel, which, in the normal course of production, would have been destined for the melting pot.
Instead, this piece is reclaimed and celebrated.
