101 years after the birth of the designer Alberto Rosselli, Saporiti Italia pays tribute to him with an exhibition from October 7 to October 30 at the ADI Design Museum in Milan that, alongside magazines, drawings, creations, and an original chaise longue Moby Dick, reinterprets the iconic armchair Jumbo (1968) through 100 examples interpreted by 10 international architects: Doriana & Massimiliano Fuksas, Martì Guixè, Toshiyuki Kita, Mauro Lipparini, Park Associati, Portman Architects, SITE James Wines, storagemilano, S20M / Antonio Ventimiglia and Carlos Zapata.
Realized in collaboration with the Centro Studi e Ricerche Sergio Saporiti and with the Alberto Rosselli archive, directed by Paolo Rosselli, the exhibition - curated by Federica Sala and set up by Martì Guixé - underlines the link between Alberto Rosselli and ADI, founded by him in 1956 together with Gillo Dorfles, Vico Magistretti, Bruno Munari, Gio Ponti and others.

The exhibition is also an opportunity for Cambi Casa d'Aste to present 100+1. Alberto Rosselli for Saporiti Italia, the new Time Auction that will be held from October 7 to November 7.
Saporiti Italia saw in Cambi the ideal partner for the sale of the 101 seats on display further consolidating the relationship of the maison with the design and furniture sector. The 100 Jumbo - all accompanied by a certificate of authenticity - originally made of fiberglass, are now reproposed in basalt fiber, an ecological and recyclable material.

The proceeds will be allocated to the Centro Studi e Ricerche Sergio Saporiti to promote activities in the world of culture, design, art and creativity.
