Description“For the Lido of Locarno, the Giudici brothers design and produce a lounge chair that can assume two positions, for reading and conversing, or for dozing. A brilliant idea that gradually evolves as mistakes come to light, until it achieves perfection. This is the penultimate stage; the two corners of the rear support and the upper crossbar were later rounded, and the armrests were replaced by rubber liners.“
