Italian designer Sergio Giobbi’s Bolle chairs, made by Giovnnetti, are a delightful construction of polyurethane foam over an internal metal structure. They sit upon a wooden base and sport PVC feet. The candy colors and soft, sculptural shape with a hole in the center, are delightfully reminiscent of Life Savers candy.
Sergio Giobbi graduated from the University of Architecture in Florence, and worked in the Interior Design department of the University before striking out on his own as a designer.
