The Stadium Armchair by Potocco

At Salone del Mobile Milano 2026, Potocco will present the Stadium armchair by Favaretto&Partners, introducing a new collection that features a chair, an armchair and a lounge chair.

Creative Director Francesco Favaretto reflects on the long-standing collaboration with Potocco: “More than thirty years ago, my father Paolo designed the Forcola chair, which received a mention at the 1991 Compasso d’Oro. Today, together with my sisters Alice and Marianna, we are continuing that creative dialogue with new collections such as Stadium.”

The backrest merges with the armrests in a single, fluid structure, an elliptical curve that evokes an embrace and harmonises curved and straight lines, creating a balance between geometric rigour and fluidity. The solid ash wood frame enhances the material and its curves, while the upholstered seat ensures comfort and visual continuity.

Ideal for living spaces or contract settings where design and hospitality coexist, Stadium works equally well as a standalone armchair, in pairs, or alongside reading tables and elegant desks, adding warmth and personality to any environment.
