Tito Agnoli Beds and Bed Frames
1931-2012
Prolific designer Tito Agnoli created imaginative furniture with a singular mix of natural and industrial materials. Designing in the modern and mid-century modern styles, he made sofas, armchairs and daybeds from leather, bamboo and rattan as well as metal table lamps and floor lamps.
Born into an Italian family in Peru in 1931, Agnoli studied at the Faculty of Architecture in Milan. In 1949, he graduated with a degree in architecture from Politecnico di Milano. While there, he became acquainted with designers Gio Ponti and Carlo De Carli. He later worked with them as an assistant, learning to create austere pieces with flawless dimensions.
Utilizing this knowledge, he developed his own practice and worked with many Italian producers, including Arflex, Cinova, Lema, Matteo Grassi, Molteni, Montina, Oluce, Pierantonio Bonacina, Poltrona Frau, Schiffini and Ycami.
Agnoli received prestigious nominations for the Compasso d’Oro award. At the 1986 NeoCon exhibition in Chicago, he won a gold medal. His works are in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Bamboo bed by Tito Agnoli for Bonacina - Italy - 50's
The simple but at the same time refined formal configuration of this bed enhances the warm naturalness of the bamboo and the modular core made up of load-bearing boards (those with larger diameters) and infill ones (with smaller diameters). Four sturdy feet raised the seat 45 cm from the ground.
The architect and lighting and furniture designer Tito Agnoli was born in 1931 in Lima, Peru. Having a family in Italy, he moved there to study in the years after the Second World War. After studying painting under the guidance of the modernist artist Mario Sironi, Agnoli enrolled at the Polytechnic of Miano in 1949 to study architecture. After graduating and specializing in industrial design, Agnoli completes an apprenticeship for the famous designers Gio Ponti and Carlo De Carli. In the 50s, 60s and 70s Agnoli designed with aptitude in the fields of furniture and lighting, creating seating designs for Italian luxury brands such as Arflex, Bonacina, Matteo Grassi, Poltrona Frau, Ycami, and design of lamps and chandeliers for Oluce.
