One of the first examples of postmodern design, this armchair rejected the undecorated geometric forms, industrial materials, and functionalist values of classical modernism. Inspired by the idea of creating an object linked to a historic literary figure, Italian designer Alessandro Mendini set out to make an armchair suitable in form and decoration for French writer Marcel Proust. After studying Proust’s visual and material world, Mendini selected a ready-made Neo-Rococo-style upholstered chair and had it handpainted with juxtaposed dots of pure color, a technique inspired by the pointillist canvases of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, who were contemporaries of Proust.

“’Proust’ Armchair,” designed 1978 by Alessandro Mendini; made 1998–99 by Atelier Mendini
