Tre 3 Chair
SIMPLE ELEGANCE
A comfortable chair made of traditional materials like wood and leather featuring simple but elegant construction details. A stool with three rectangular-sectioned legs, two front legs at the sides and a central leg at the rear, joined together by a solid T-shaped cross structure, which is as stable as a traditional chair with four legs.
In Tre 3, a piece of leather has been placed in the high rear leg which gently descends to smoothly and seamlessly give shape to the back and seat. This is a rereading of a kind of chair previously created by leading figures of Nordic design. The “3T” chair took Angelo Mangiarotti closer to the work of another great 20th-century maestro, Carlo Scarpa, who influenced all those designers who believed attention to detail was something to be explored and honoured.

Angelo Mangiarotti
Angelo Mangiarotti
Tre 3 Chair
One of the great names of Twentieth century Italian design, a committed, cultivated and brilliant designer, capable of embracing the ideals of the Modern Movement and going beyond them with his experimental and extremely original designs, Angelo Mangiarotti has succeeded in applying his unique talent to projects of different scales, ranging from architecture to design. An advocate of rigorous functionalism, he has never neglected the pursuit of elegance and beauty in his work. He pushed beyond conventional boundaries and moved into sculpture with his skillful reflections on plasticity and form, always using contemporary materials and production processes. His approach, and the principles that underlie it, have always been the result of a profound awareness of the importance of values that have an ethical dimension. Angelo Mangiarotti has created his own ‘happiness’ through the ‘correctness’ of his practice, cleverly managing to reconcile the inescapable dualism of ethics and aesthetics.
MANUFACTURER
AGAPECASA
In 2009, Agape's passion for the culture of design and the long standing collaboration with Angelo Mangiarotti, culminated in the establishment of Agapecasa, dedicated to the re-edition of the original and timeless pieces of one of the greatest masters of post-war Italian design and architecture
The “Mangiarotti Collection” consists of 19 projects carried out carefully following the drawings of Angelo Mangiarotti, 2 of them designed with the Architect Bruno Morassutti and based on the reliefs and study of the original models. The projects carried out by the maestro from the early fifties onwards have been thoroughly analyzed from the technical and constructive point of view, then further checked and re-interpreted to meet the changing needs of our time and adapted to today’s current standards of quality, strength and safety requirements.
The “Mangiarotti Collection” faithfully reproduces some of Mangiarotti’s most famous projects, now made taking into account the need for a more contemporary production, introducing small variations in construction but carefully preserving the theoretical, compositional and formal aspects of one of the great artists of the twentieth century.
As a further guarantee of quality and in line with the ongoing effort to upgrade technology that distinguishes Agape’s production, the “Mangiarotti Collection” is also equipped with an innovative system of certification. Each object in the collection is branded with the signature of the designer while the furniture in marble and stone has an electronic tag. This makes it possible to trace all relevant data and characteristics, from serial number to dealer’s name and even customer, and from the materials to the technologies used in production. In this way signature and tag certify the undiscussed originality of the product.
Agapecasa originates from the vision of Agape, which for over fifty years has been exploring the most intimate spaces of living. The same design approach is applied to two contiguous realms: the bathroom and the home, united by a timeless concept.
