Las Vegas armchair by Peter Shire, 1988

About the Item

The "Las Vegas" armchair is a creation of American artist and designer Peter Shire, made in 1988. Shire is known for his eccentric and colorful approach to design, often mixing elements of pop art, Memphis design and contemporary art. The "Las Vegas" armchair clearly reflects Shire's distinctive style with its bold shape and bright color combinations. This piece is an example of Shire's playful and unconventional approach to furniture design, which often incorporates surreal elements and unusual geometric shapes. The "Las Vegas" was created as part of the "Memphis" furniture collection, a design movement founded by Ettore Sottsass in the 1980s that revolutionized the design world with its bold and experimental style
