Description
The iconic cubic Suitcase armchair, designed by Rodolfo Dordoni in 1997, gets an overhaul in the 2019 edition Suitcase Line, providing a contemporary take on the concept and geometric rigour of the original piece, characterized by new details.
With the chrome feet that originally supported the armchair now removed, the volume sits on the floor and features four flawless strips in aluminium on the corners that provide a glimpse of the upholstery at the end. The strips are painted in an all-new Brandy colour finish that adds depth to the metal.
Available in the fabrics and leathers of the collection, Suitcase Line is at its most eclectic in the Pony Look version, covered in calfskin with a pony skin print.
The new shades added to the original palette include Oil Green, Burgundy, Ash Grey, Sage and Corten.
A range with a strong personality, designed to bring unique flair and elegance to a wide range of different indoor contexts.

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.
