I4 Mariani in The Globe restaurant

In the panoramic restaurant The globe, within a golden glass sphere 200 metres above ground level, on the top floor of the modern tower of the Hotel Al Faisaliah in Riyadh – designed by the famous Foster & Partners – we find several chairs by I4 Mariani. Monte range, with its characteristic shape, the curve of the arm and the use of burr-wood to embellish the product and, in a relax room, Fumo armchairs, with its fine visible wood base.

All designed by Foster & Partners, one of the most innovative architecture and integrated design practices in the world. Here structural and environmental engineers work alongside the architects from the beginning of the design process. Based in London, with offices worldwide, the practice has an international reputation, with buildings in six continents. Foster & Partners understands that the best design comes from a completely integrated approach from conception to completion.
