Brand new to our range: the rivet rocker with the distinctive AA logo captures the allure of an entire era in this design classic, that is as striking as it is stylish.
For over 40 years, until 2013 to be exact, the famous American Airlines logo was synonymous with progress and freedom for an entire generation of aviation enthusiasts. Created by Italian designer Massimo Vignelli in 1967 - and available today as a high-quality screen print on our rivet rocker: ready for its ground mission and already a true legend.
The rivet rocker_American Airlines is available in the new Edition and we are honoured to have one of the most traditional airlines join our bordbar range.
„If you can design one thing, you can design everything.”
Massimo Vignelli
The architect, graphic, industrial and furniture designer Massimo Vignelli (1931 - 2014) is no doubt one of the most important designers of the 20th century.
Among other things, he designed the stackable Handkerchief Chair for Knoll, the purist Saratoga furniture series for Poltrona Frau and the iconic Stendig calendar. Vignelli's legacies also include the creation of American Airlines' Corporate Identity and his New York Subway System signage.
Massimo Vignelli's numerous designs can still be seen in the permanent collections of important design museums such as the Museum of Modern Art, Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Montreal and Neue Sammlung in Munich.
