F50 armchairs were chosen for the conference room,
in Lainate (Milan), of Fanuc Italia, a subsidiary of the
Japanese giant of the same name, which is a pioneer
in the development of CNC and automated systems
and industrial robots, and has 264 branches in 108
countries worldwide. Designed by Tekne Ingegneria
S.p.A, the new headquarters (LEED gold certified) for
the second largest Fanuc subsidiary in Europe in terms
of turnover and number of employees comes at a time
of positive growth for the company. In the conference
room, which is equipped with a control box, video
projection system and multimedia desk for speakers,
the F50 armchairs are upholstered in black faux
leather and there are a few seats in the middle with
grey upholstery to provide a contrasting touch. Each
armchair has a foldaway tip-up table with anti-panic
motion, a HPL laminate writing top and a moving
die-cast aluminium joint. The place and row numbers
provided round things off.
