The entire exterior metallic surface of the Franco Albini AM4Z is coated in a slick Chrome finish, from the steel accents through the dome-shaped aluminum shade.
After graduating in architecture at Milan Politecnico, Franco Albini worked simultaneously in fields of furniture, product design, architecture, urban planning and interior design. His sentiments as a rationalist architect translated into remarkably transparent furniture designs, which display a knowledgeable use of materials while presenting their internal structure and processes of production.
