Abbitibiti Coat Rack
Enzo Mari
Production Zanotta
Free-standing coat rack designed by Enzo Mari for Zanotta, 1991.
Abbitibiti is a double-sided coat rack built around a central wooden panel and a linear black metal base, with seven metal hooks arranged on each side. Its pure geometry and restrained construction give the piece a strong yet refined graphic character. Typical of Mari’s approach, the design reduces the object to a few essential elements without sacrificing practicality or durability. Conceived as an everyday object made to last, Abbitibiti reflects his close attention to materials, construction and quality of production.

Enzo Mari
Born in Novara in 1932, Enzo Mari was an Italian designer, artist, and theorist, a critical figure in twentieth-century design. His work is distinguished by a rigorous approach, interpreting design as a critical tool and opposing the notion of consumption as the ultimate aim of a project. Mari conceived objects as instruments of knowledge and responsibility, capable of educating the viewer and shaping the relationship between humans, production, and society. Central to his philosophy is the Autoprogettazione project, aimed at restoring awareness and engagement to the user. His work has had a profound influence on debates about the social and cultural role of design.
