Advanced seating systems were provided for the
exquisite Villa Blanc, part of the university campus of
the Luiss Business School, the management-education
school of the Libera Università Internazionale degli
Studi sociali Guido Carli. The mansion, redesigned in
1898 in an eclectic style for Baron Alberto Blanc, the
Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Crispi Cabinet, is set
in a park dotted with small buildings and greenhouses.
For the villa (protected since 1922), E4000 study desks
by Lucci and Orlandini were selected. These, complete
with a fixed top, an electrical cable duct underneath
and inter-row bars, were installed with full respect for
the floor, on which no fixing holes were drilled. Both
padded and laminate versions of the study desks―in
three different finishes―were provided for five other
small villas throughout the campus, whose rooms are
used for teaching. Fully padded and complete with tipup
seat, the HL3 chairs by Lucci and Orlandini provided
are highly resistant, durable and comfortable.
