Alessandro La Spada Furniture

Italian

Eccentric and anything but ordinary, Italian designer Alessandro La Spada creates seating, lighting fixtures, tables and other furnishings that are revered by architects and interior designers and coveted by collectors of luxurious and stylish 21st-century furniture.

Born to Sicilian parents in Reggio Calabria, La Spada grew up with a keen interest in art, drawing throughout his childhood. In later years, he moved to Milan to attend the Interior Design Institute and Ateneo Creativo (IDI’AC), graduating in 1990. After completing his studies, La Spada became a lecturer in furniture design at IDI’AC and the Domus Academy and collaborated with studio Sawaya and Moroni on a series of interior design projects.

When visiting Brianza, La Spada learned cabinetmaking and metalworking from the region’s master craftspeople. Upon his return to Milan, he used his newly acquired skills to create his first furniture collection, which he exhibited at the Salone del Mobile in 2000. 

In 2005, La Spada met Samuele Mazza and the pair collaborated on designs for coffee tables and other furnishings for luxury brand Medea. Throughout the 2000s, La Spada also worked with several well-known Italian manufacturers, including Antolini, Besana, Longhi and Smania Industria Italiana Mobili. Among his most popular pieces are his elegant glass Jardin De Verre lighting fixtures for La Murrina. He created sculptural sofas, tables and armchairs for Visionnaire, with their stainless steel frames and lacquered wood that evokes sensuous ‘70s-era spaces, while his Girder dining room table with a crackle-glass top for Clan Milano exudes elegance in any space. 

La Spada’s furniture has been featured in publications throughout Europe and around the world, such as Marie Claire Maison, Platform, Surface and more.

Alessandro Becchi Grey Leather “Anfibio” Three Seater Sofa for Giovannetti, 1972
By Giovannetti, Alessandro Becchi
Located in Vicenza, IT
Anfibio sofa-bed by Alessandro Becchi for Giovannetti, 1972. Fully restored and upholstered with high-quality grey Italian natural leather. Mattress upholstered with soft sheepskin wool. The Anfibio sofa ranks among the most outstanding cult products of Italian design. It is innovative, original, and highly functional; it is a revolutionary sofa-bed, a symbol of high quality and sapient artisanry. It is possible to find it in the permanent collection of 13 museums worldwide, among which the MoMa in New York, since 1972. Alessandro Becchi designed the “Anfibio” sofa for the Italian manufacturer Giovannetti in 1970. It is characterized by generous dimensions and soft, embracing shapes that invite relaxation and comfort. It reminds a floating dinghy thanks to its lack of rigid mechanism. This feature inspired its name, which means amphibious. Furthermore, the sofa presents a rectangular steel structure and padding in non-deformable high-density polyurethane, covered with acrylic thermo-welded fibers and protective fabric. The Anfibio sofa by Giovannetti is available covered in leather or fabric and several colors. This artwork is the ideal convertible solution, the perfect combination of aesthetic research and innovative household living. Alessandro Becchi was born in Florence in 1946. He studied at ISIA in his hometown, and in the late 60s, he began his career as a designer. In 1970 he designed the revolutionary Anfibio sofa for Giovannetti. In 1972, thanks to the success of Anfibio, he was invited to the exhibition “Italy: the New Domestic Landscape” at the Museum of Modern Arts in New York. This date opens in close collaboration with Giovannetti. He designed a series of sofa-beds, such as Only You, Brando, Diletto, and the famous armchairs Le Bugie...
