JOE BALL POUF

It was created to mark the fiftieth anniversary Joe Ball, designed as a footrest for Joe Baseball Chair and also excellent as a separate stool. Joe Ball is upholstered in leather in the desired color and is shaped and features the typical stitching of a classic baseball. As a natural complement to the Joe armchair, the pouf is stabilized by an internal weight, which also prevents it from rolling away uncontrollably. In this way, Joe Ball can also be used fabulously as a seat. Similar to a medicine ball, which promotes dynamic sitting and is often used for therapeutic purposes, Joe Ball also encourages active sitting. The characteristic features of Centro Studi Poltronova, The 50th anniversary and Joe's name are engraved on the surface of the Joe Ball.

Inspired by Pop Art and in the style of Radical Design by designers Gionatan de Pas, Donato d'Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi (Studio DDLThe popularity of baseball player Joe DiMaggio, center fielder with jersey number 5 for the New York Yankees, played a crucial role in the design. DiMaggio embodied honesty, respect, and loyalty. The son of Sicilian immigrants from humble beginnings, he left school at 16 to pursue his sport. In 1949, he signed a contract with the New York Yankees for $100,000 a year. Marilyn Monroe was DiMaggio's great love, and the two were a couple from 1952 to 1954. Until his death in 1999, DiMaggio regularly sent red roses to her grave. Just as the New York Yankees retired the number 5 in his honor, Studio DDL has created a design tribute to the charismatic athlete with Italian roots with the Joe lounge chair.

The Joe Ball stool is the perfect complement to the legendary Joe lounge chair, beloved by stars and celebrities from diverse backgrounds for its uniqueness, luxurious craftsmanship, and rich history.
