Calligaris POD Chair is the Winner of "Chair of the Year" Contest


Calligaris chair POD is the winner of annual contest “The Chair of the Year 2007”, organized within the format of Promosedia, a Chair Exhibition, held in Udine, Italy.
The first Chair Exhibition was held in 1977, initiated by some Italian industrialists of the Chair Triangle to encourage the local industry to approach the market directly, under their own names, in contrast to acting as subcontractors to furniture companies. At the same time the Exhibition publicized the specialization of the area.
Since 1984 its organization has been in the hands of Promosedia and has grown from a regional, to a national and then an international exhibition. In fact it is the only international exhibition in the world dedicated to seating and is an event not to be missed for thousands of members of the trade world-wide: buyers, importers, agents, wholesalers, retailers, architects, designers and the media.
The chair "POD" is designed by LUCCI & ORLANDINI, the tandem of two Italian designers. Lucci & Orlandini has taken part to numerous editions of the Triennale of Milan and exhibit design collections at the Museum of Modern Art of New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Chicago, the Museum Für Kunst und Gewerbe of Hamburg along with the Centre Nationl d'Art Contemporain del Louvre of Paris. They have also been included in many international design exhibitions and have received a great number of international awards.

Calligaris - The History of More Than 80 Years


The story. Antonio Calligaris' shop started its production in 1923 manufacturing its first 'Marocca' chair. A company meant to grow. By the conception and the adoption of the first manufacturing machine for straw seats, in the sixties, the company started its journey towards innovation. Today Calligaris is a market leader in the chairs, tables and furniture. With experience that grows over time, it has the strength of a company that retains traditions while working towards the future.

The group. Calligaris is made up of four different companies: Calligaris d.o.o, where raw materials are bought and where the first production takes place; Calligaris USA, which deals with the North American market; Calligaris Japan, which deals with the Japanese market; and Calligaris S.p.A., the core of the Group. The headquarters are in Manzano, in the North of Italy. At the head of this group is Alessandro Calligaris, third generation president. (from official Calligaris website http://www.calligaris.it/)
