Italian design company Zanotta, that was established in 1954, has added a low storage unit, cupboard and mirror to its Quaderna collection. The furniture features the 3cm chequered mesh laminate that was created by Print and designed by Superstudio. Digitally printed laminate is hand-applied to the furniture’s body, a task that requires precision and takes several hours to complete. Each piece of furniture is made from a single sheet of laminate to ensure continuity of the mesh pattern. Photo of the Quaderna storage element / sideboard by Simone Barberis. Zanotta

Quaderna Series by Zanotta is now 50
The ‘radical design’ movement of late 1960s Italy led to the creation of the Quaderna Series of furniture, which was designed by the Superstudio group and has been manufactured by Zanotta since 1972. The iconic collection is characterised by geometric shapes covered with a chequered white laminate. A coffee table, desk and carpet have been added to the series to mark the 50th anniversary.
