Progetti Furniture

Progetti is an Italian furniture and lighting manufacturer founded by Gianfranco Frattini. Owner Renato Parisotto, Italian born and raised, has been living and working in the United States since 1999. In the footsteps of the family business, he started his first company Studio Par in 1983, at age 22. His intuition was to create a new trend in luxury shoes sales, opening a showroom in the core of Milan fashion district. During his 16-year career in the fashion industry, Mr. Parisotto covered a broad range of positions, from sales to consulting in product design and development, to buying and merchandising for high end boutiques. In 1999, Mr. Parisotto decided to follow his passion for furniture and interior design as he was moving to Los Angeles. He founded Bianca Italia, Inc. in collaboration with Baleri Italia, to represent several brands in the US and Canada markets. In 2004, relocating to the East Coast, he became co-owner of Adlon, promoting the company as a staple in furniture and design for the DC Metro area. In his last fifteen years of experience in retail and interior design, he developed strong contacts with clients, professionals and suppliers.

Designer: Eugenio Gerli (Osvaldo Borsani) Manufacturer: Tecno (chairs are labeled) Country: Italy Model: S82 dining chairs Design period: circa 1960 Date of manufacturing: 1960’s Size in cm: 43x47x80 seat height 43 cm. Material: Italian walnut / Brass / Metal / Cast iron / Original linen/cotton upholstery Condition: Good / Normal signs of age and use Price: On request About Eugenio Gerli: Eugenio Gerli (b. 1923) is an Italian architect and industrial designer known for his long-lasting collaboration with the Italian architect-designer Osvaldo Borsani and the Italian manufacturer Tecno. In 1949, Gerli graduated with a degree in engineering and began his career a year later, opening his own architectural and industrial design practice. Gerli began experimenting with various materials such as resin, felt, and molded plywood, which led to designs he presented in 1951 at the 9th Triennale di Milano; his bent plywood armchair for Forma (1950s); and the three-legged Sommaruga Chair(1950s), which was made from resin reinforced molded felt on a steel base. Architecturally, the firm focused on residential and public buildings, as well as the renovation of historic Italian buildings. Notable architectural projects include the Cardiology Clinic in Laveno-Monbello (1950), the Ambasciatori Theater in Milan (1954), the renovation and restoration of the Castiglioni Palace (1903). Gerli was later joined by his two sons, Enrico and Guido, in the 1970s. In 1957 Gerli began a long and fruitful collaboration with the Borsani brothers, Fulgenzio and Osvaldo Borsani (1911-1985)—founders of the Italian furniture manufacturing company Tecno. In 1968, Gerli and Osvaldo Borsani exhibited their revolutionary Graphis Office System (1967) at the 14th Triennale di Milano. The system, which was made up of just three basic elements, was heralded as a revolution in office furniture design because the system’s modular components allowed unlimited and customizable combinations, which could grow (or contract) with the company. The system remained a bestseller for decades and Tecno became synonymous for technologically-advanced design. The partnership between Gerli and Tecno lasted for more than 35 years, and resulted in many 20th-century design classics such as the T92 Butterfly Table (1960 with Mario Cristiani...

Gibigiana Lamp Achille Castiglioni for Flos, 1980s
By Achille Castiglioni
Located in toronto, CA
Flos’s mission was to revolutionize the lighting industry by exploiting new materials, starting with Eisenkeil’s “cocoon floss” polyamide. In the early years of Flos, design was overseen first by Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, followed by his brother Achille and Tobia Scarpa, and then Scarpa’s wife, Afra. The resulting products were intriguingly futuristic looking, such as the Castiglionis’ Viscontea Lamp (1960), Taraxacum Chandelier (1960), and Gato Table Light (1960), as well as the Scarpas’ Fantasma Floor Lamp (1960s). The effect of the cocoon allowed for a soft, ambient glow. Other signature Flos pieces include the classic Arco Lamp (1962) by the Castiglioni brothers; the Parentesi Lamp (1971) by Achille Castiglioni and Pio Manzu, which was the first piece in the Flos collection...
