The Stella McCartney x B&B Italia capsule collection (armchair, two-seater sofa and three-seater sofa) is marking the British conscious pioneer’s first-ever interiors collaboration. The armchair features a hand-drawn “Fungi Forest” print upholstery pulled from the Stella McCartney Summer 2022 runway collection and a responsible construction inspired by shared sustainability values.
'I feel the pleasure of revisiting this family again, because it confirms to me that it is anything but aged. On the contrary, it is enjoying a thriving and promising second life, a rebirth done in a big way… We have recovered its charm, sumptuous fluidity and softness.’ – Mario Bellini
Part of the B&B Italia collection for half a century, in 2022 Le Bambole was revisited by designer Mario Bellini who has built on the collection with a look and feel akin to the original. With a generous, curvy shape, the new additions build on the original components and now include the Bambole armchair, the Bibambola two-seater sofa, the Bamboletto double bed and a three-seater sofa with a deeper seat called the Granbambola. In refining the feel of the collection, comfort was paramount and the original metal frame has been developed using a new generation of circular materials that like the 2020 edition of the Camaleonda, has been designed so that each element can be separated and recycled.
