ZANOTTA'S ZA:ZA SOFA WINS THE XXVIII COMPASSO D'ORO
Zanotta is proud to announce that the ADI - Association for Industrial Design has recognised the Za:Za sofa, designed by Zaven, with the XXVIII Compasso D'Oro, the prestigious award dedicated to the best Italian design.
The ADI has awarded the innovative features and sustainability aspects of Za:Za, which introduces a new frontier in the sofa production, presenting a construction system, inspired by the hammock principle, which accommodates and suspends the upholstered elements. A tubular steel structure supports slackened straps in suspension and creates a housing for the arm, back and seat cushions that are juxtaposed on the metal skeleton as in a tailored suit.
In terms of sustainability, Za:Za is the result of a process of breaking down and rationalising the elements of the sofa and reducing its components to the essentials. It takes into account production and recycling cycles: the sofa is easily disassembled, adopts recycled and recyclable materials, the use of glues is completely eliminated, and the different upholstery layers are inserted inside individual pockets in the recycled and recyclable polyester inner lining.
In addition, regenerated polyester spheres allow the use of polyurethane to be minimised and guarantee an excellent enveloping comfort.
The Za:Za sofa perfectly reflects Zanotta's commitment to environmental sustainability. Using only recycled and recyclable materials, Za:Za is more than a sofa: it is a manifesto of ecological responsibility.
