896 KENT Design by Ludovica+Roberto Palomba Project year 2013 Armchair/Bergere. Revolving base in varnished steel, colors: black, chrome or graphite. Steel frame. Upholstery in self-extinguishing graduated polyurethane foam/heat-bound polyester fiber. Fixed internal nylon cover. Removable external fabric or leather cover.An armchair, a high-backed bergére and a footrest with swivel base that Palomba imagined to be in warm and sensual shades since the first sketches. “The tweed fabric looked ideal. Kent is like a charming and elegant woman, with a certain determination, and as a matter of fact, in the early days of its launch, I kept on mispronouncing the vowel in “Kant” like Diabolik’s Eva an irreplaceable partner... It is not by chance that Kent in its three versions is a padded object between vintage and futurism. A seat for the contemporary living room that actually could be designed twenty years ago or even a century ago. This is why the shapes and materials are in some way iconic and classic. They can be customized according to the preferred style and décor.”
