Joe Whip
50th anniversary special edition
Per celebrare il cinquantesimo anniversario della poltrona Joe progettata da Studio DDL, il Centro Studi Poltronova ha creato quattro edizioni speciali di un articolo imprescindibile che non è mai uscito dal catalogo. Joe Whip è realizzato in pelle nera, una preziosa edizione con un intreccio elaborato che trasforma il bracciolo in una frangia e, per similitudine, in una frusta, preservando tutta la sua provocazione Pop.

When play gets bigger — literally.
⚾️ Joe Ball pouf/footrest by D’Urbino, Lomazzi
—
Joe Ball by Poltronova is a leather pouf and footrest created for the fiftieth anniversary of Joe.
Its shape and stitching directly recall a classic baseball, conceived as a natural completion to the Joe armchair.
Inside, a concealed weight makes the pouf stable when used as a seat, preventing it from rolling.
Made in Italy, Joe Ball has a simple form that requires exceptional craftsmanship.
Produced using pre-formed expanded polyurethane, it involves highly accurate manual work to faithfully reproduce a leather baseball on a giant scale.
The leather cover is crafted like an haute couture garment, ensuring the highest quality.
Each piece is unique and available in a wide range of colors.
Three branded marks stamped into the leather guarantee authenticity: the name Joe, the Centro Studi Poltronova logo, and the Joe 50th anniversary mark.
In the video, the object shifts from game to furniture, from scale play to physical interaction, turning Joe Ball into an experience where body, movement, and Italian design collide.

Joe: an icon that refuses to sit still 🤎
Joe armchair (1970) + Joe Ball pouf/footrest (2020): same irreverent spirit, shared attitude, comfort made in Italy.
What started as a radical gesture becomes a dialogue across time: playful, bodily, unmistakably pop.
After more than 50 years, Joe is still challenging how we inhabit objects and space, with Joe Ball by its side.
Both upholstered in vintage leather.
Other options available.

Not fully visible, nor entirely absent.
These objects aren’t simply on display: they hide, reveal, refract, disappear and reappear among textures and reflections.
Sensitive presences—engaged in a dialogue with surfaces, imagination, and time.
You don’t look at them. They observe you.

SALONE DEL MOBILE 2025:
ＸＳ ＝ ＥＸＴＲＡ ＳＵＲＦＡＣＥ
Under the creative direction of Donatello D’Angelo, Poltronova continues this exploration,
transforming the exhibition space into an undomestic landscape—an environment that rejects
the functional order of the home to explore new perceptions of dwelling.
The display unfolds through reflective and fragmented planes, embossed panels that break
up the light, curtains and drapes that create unstable depths. A matter in tension, in
constant mutation. In this scenario, Poltronova’s iconic pieces are not mere displayed objects
but sensitive presences, elements that rewrite the concept of domestic space.
