Ultrafragola
by Ettore Sottsass jr.
«Quanto poi alle luci che escono fuori dai “Mobili Grigi”, le tombe non hanno sempre delle tremule luci che illuminano la tristezza degli spazi vaganti nella valle polverosa? E i sottomarini non hanno delle luci verdi tremolanti nella loro pancia? Le luci sono pensate venir fuori dal corpo di fiberglass, come il bianco splendente della pelle bianca dei seni, o il rosso splendente della punta del pene nelle notti pornografiche, qualcosa del genere, voglio dire qualcosa come le lucciole giapponesi che trasformano le notti di maggio in materia solida. Ci può essere qualcosa di più ridicolo?»
[Ettore Sottsass jr., 1970]

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.

XS is an exhibition presenting a selection of Poltronova’s iconic designs — like Ultrafragola by Ettore Sottsass jr., 1970 — alongside something unexpected. Are you ready?
🪞⚡️🍓 Ultrafragola mirror/lamp, with its sinuous profile that suggests long wavy hair, belongs to the “The Grey Furniture” series of complete bedroom and living room furnishings designed by Ettore Sottsass for Poltronova and presented at the third edition of Eurodomus in 1970. With the exception of Ultrafragola, the models never got beyond the prototype phase.
