Portego
A relative newcomer to the world of Italian furniture, Portego creates contemporary designs by fostering and nurturing a close relationship between its designers and manufacturers. Its home city of Veneto, Italy, attracts many skilled workers and designers, including Chiara Andreatti, Serena Confalonieri, Ilaria Innocenti, Giorgio Laboratore, Alessandro Zambelli, Seraina Lareida and Nikolai Kotlarczyk. From small decorative objects like boxes and baskets, to wool rugs and lacquered side tables, Portego honors historic design with 21st-century style.
Product designer Flavia Testi and interior designer Stefano Rossi founded Portego in 2015 with a network of specialized individuals. Designers are selected not only for their expertise but also for their ability to be adaptable to working with different manufacturers. Portego encourages designers to collaborate closely with the craftspeople who produce the furniture.
Portego is modern in its design with a traditional approach. Alongside recruiting local craft experts, Portego inserts nods to design history. The Bronzino hooks, for example, designed by Alessandro Zambelli, are bronze storage hooks that conjure images of 1900s architecture and resemble brass trumpets. The Elemento and Scena wall mirrors designed by Nikolai Kotlarczyk draw inspiration from 16th-century architect Andrea Palladio and feature carved Murano glass with a polished silver finish.
Portego has exhibited worldwide, including at Milan Design Week, Paris Design Week, Operae in Turin, Italy, the London Design Fair, Design Shanghai and Biennale Interieur in Kortrijk, Belgium.
