Nemo is presented by Fabio Novembre for Driade for the first time during the Salone del Mobile 2010, and is the manifestation of a design that enhances the human figure, proposed as a face with classic features that reveals an internal element which is a seat. The name Nemo immediately evokes the little fish of the Pixar film or Captain Nemo protagonist of a famous book by Jules Verne, but going further back in time in the classical era around 800 BC, Nemo would have been the name chosen by Odysseus to deceive Polyphemus. Indeed, Fabio Novembre takes inspiration from ancient Greek statues for the creation of this piece of design, and the name Nemo becomes a mask used to hide the identity.
The material with which this version of the Nemo armchair is made derives from industrial recycling from internal production waste (and therefore controlled), and from post-consumer recycling; that is to say from products disposed of with waste sorting - such as the example of PET bottles and containers - and recycled thus giving life to new objects. You can choose the fixed version (for indoor and outdoor use) or the 360° swivel version (ONLY for indoor use). The different versions of the Nemo collection are available in the Product Family.
- Fixed Version: For use in indoor and outdoor environments.
- Swivel Version: For indoor use only.
Two questions:
If I want one in white & one in black, can it be made?
Why is the swivel base only for in door use?
Hi,
the version you are looking at has recycled plastics and is only produced in black, the normal version is also made in white, you can see it here:

The swivel chair is for indoors, because the rotation mechanism has non-watertight bearings. It can be used outdoors but with the precaution of not leaving it outside during the rain.
Best regards
