About this Product

The Armchair 54 by Gae Aulenti, designed in 1974 for Knoll, is a striking example of Italian modernism: a sculptural lounge chair with a sturdy enamelled metal frame and generous leather upholstery. Its clean, architectural lines balance strength with comfort, while the minimalist form and refined materials make it a timeless piece of 1970s design.

About the Designer

Italian architect-designer Gaetana “Gae” Aulenti (1927-2012) was born in the town of Palazzolo dello Stella, near Trieste. Defying her parents’ wishes, she studied architecture at the Politecnico di Milano, graduating in 1954—one of only two women in a class of 20.
