- Pilotis Bench
Description
The Pilotis bench is inspired by the sculptural design of the Pilotis console table in steel and wood. A furnishing piece in which the Licorice lacquered brushed ash top serves as a seat, accommodating a soft cushion. Unlike the console table frame, which stands on a central cylindrical base, the bench features two wooden legs. Its strong aesthetic makes it a centrepiece in any living space.
Structure: Mitre-folded polished stainless-steel sheet and top in MDF, brushed ash veneer with open-pore Licorice colour lacquer finish.
Cushions: Padding in heat-bonded fibre with core insert in high-resilience polyurethane foam.
Covers: Upholstery in fabric or leather is completely removable.
Legs: In MDF, 70 mm thick, brushed ash veneer with open-pore Licorice colour lacquer finish. Adjustable feet in ABS with protective black felt glides.

Designer
Rodolfo Dordoni
Minotti’s collaboration with Milanese architect and designer Rodolfo Dordoni began in 1997 and continued until his passing in 2023. Over more than two decades, their partnership played a key role in shaping the company’s design identity.
Dordoni presented his first Minotti collection in 1997, including the iconic Suitcase armchair, marking the beginning of a long and successful collaboration. In 1998, he became Art Director, overseeing the development and coordination of the company’s collections. Under his direction, Minotti evolved into a complete lifestyle brand, developing collections for residential, outdoor, and Hospitality spaces. His vision helped establish a distinctive language of Italian craftsmanship, quality, and timeless contemporary design.
