Experience the fusion of design and joy with BABY-LONIA, an innovative creation born from the avant-garde minds at Studio 65. Crafted in the early 1970s under the visionary leadership of Franco Audrito, BABY-LONIA took inspiration from educational theories by pedagogue Francesco De Bartolomeis, evolving into a playful, versatile, and educational piece.
Originally implemented in Italian schools due to its lightweight, flexible design suitable for children, BABY-LONIA transitioned into an interior design marvel, fitting perfectly into Gufram’s vibrant catalogue of Italian radical design. The oversized structure, reminiscent of traditional wooden toys, is constructed from soft polyurethane, inviting interaction and play. Coated in Guflac®, a unique patented paint by Gufram, BABY-LONIA has the appearance and durability of leather without compromising on its softness.
BABY-LONIA is more than just furniture – it’s a domestic sculpture that can be deconstructed into a variety of purposes, a plaything that caters to the imagination of both children and adults. This extraordinary piece holds the unique distinction of being the only object of play included in the collection of Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, testifying to its enduring charm and influence.
