Design Richard Hutten,
2015
A simple line, a lounge style which reveals right from the first glance an open and relaxed pop mood. The name introduces the presence of a structural yet at the same time decorative element, a wooden hook with an X shape, exposed joint which joins the oval back, slim and slightly convex, to the seat base. An armchair and a small sofa without armrests which, through their shape and proportions, appear as a natural development on the pouf. The small size makes X-chair suitable both for waiting seating in the hall of a hotel and a reception area in a shop or restaurant.

Agostino Moroso, with his wife, Diana, founded the Moroso company in 1952 with an artisanal approach to making sofas, armchairs and furnishing accessories. Their iconic designs have propelled them within the upholstered furniture market, with help from a long list of well known designers: Ron Arad, Patricia Urquiola, Ross Lovegrove, Konstantin Grcic, Alfredo H?berli, Toshiyuki Kita, Marcel Wanders and others. Each piece maintains a noticeable Moroso style while representing other cultures as well. Its international outlook has landed Moroso into the MoMA in New York, Le Palais de Tokyo, the Grand Palais in Paris.
