This Citroën concept car, developed for the exhibition “The New Domestic Landscape” at MoMA, New York (23 May-11 September 1972), is presented by its designer, the architect Mario Bellini (1935-), not without irony, as “a MOBILE HUMAN SPACE where you can lie down, sleep, smile, have a private conversation, get up, enjoy the sun, take photos, play cards, eat and drink, make love, buy a horse and a piano along the way...”. A research by Mario Bellini, in collaboration with Dario Bellini, Francesco Binfarè and Giorgio Origlia. Sponsored by Cassina, C&B Italia, with the contribution of Citroën and Industrie Pirelli. Produced by Centro Cassina.
