2023 Tacchini Flock, Milan

On the occasion of Milano Design Week 2023, Tacchini teams up again with Formafantasma in the pursuit of greater sustainability. At Capsule Plaza, the brand presents Tacchini FLOCK, a project installation conceived and curated by Formafantasma. Reworking upholstered seating from the inside, Formafantasma introduces a more sustainable, nature-based process for the manufacture of iconic Tacchini designs, with a technique inspired by antique mattress production, using surplus sheep’s wool to replace industrial foam. In combination with natural latex, the non-polluting sheep’s wool provides softness and stuffing utilizing a natural material that has paradoxically been treated as a waste product.
