In addition to her striking "Arrivo al Mare" installation in the Italian Pavilion at the 1964 Milan Triennale, utilizing Picasso-inspired silhouettes and mirrors, during the 1960s she also designed furniture for a number of clients.

Maker
Poltronova Poltronova was founded by Sergio Cammilli in 1957. In the early years of the company?s history a fundamental contribution was made by Ettore Sottsass Jr., who became its art director in 1958, with Poltronova producing scores of his designs, from furniture to ceramics. Poltronova turned its attention to the art world, working closely with artists such as Ceroli, Nespolo, Ruffi, and Max Ernst. Company has won many awards for its creations, including the Compasso d'Oro in 1957 for the stool by Luciano Nustrini, in 1977 for the publication of the book Fare Mobili con Poltronova (Making Furniture with Poltronova); or the Top Ten prize in 1984 for the ?She? armchair by Prospero Rasulo.
