Giovanni Offerdi
ITALIAN, 1927-2007
About his mid-century modern furniture designs, which marry minimalist simplicity with elegance and symmetry, Italian designer Giovanni Offredi once said, "Beauty should not be confused with appearance, for the latter is the superficial part of the form".
Born in Milan in 1927, Offredi was not trained as an architect, unlike many of his contemporaries in the first half of the 20th century. He also didn't start designing furniture until later in his career. Its first known pieces of furniture were commissioned by wealthy Milanese families in 1960.
It was not until the late 1960s - when Mr. Offredi met Sergio Saporiti, owner of Italian furniture manufacturer and design store Saporiti - that his furniture designs have become more prominent. In 1970, Offredi joined forces with Saporiti and produced several lines of innovative and modernist furniture.
Among the most outstanding pieces by Offredi are the Wave chair, sofa and chaise longue, with its soft curves, the Onda coffee table and the Paracarro dining table, with its cylindrical concrete base, its glass and its metal cross-section. He also designed a series of credenzas and sideboards in lacquered wood, with a glossy finish and bold colors.
Offredi maintained a successful collaboration with Saporiti throughout the 1970s. In 1984, he entered into a partnership with Italian cabinet and kitchen manufacturer Snaidero, designing modern kitchens. His latest kitchen design, Kube, in 2006, featured clean shapes, contrasting materials and colors, and a recessed aluminum kickplate with a reflective mirror finish, which made the kitchen appear to be suspended above. above ground. The kitchen won a Good Design Award from the Chicago Design Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design in 2008. Offredi never had the opportunity to accept this award: he died in 2007.

Although the works of SOUGHT Furniture are relatively obscure, they are sought after by furniture collectors and enthusiasts around the world.

Some stains on part of the chair which absolutely does not detract from the beauty of this extremely comfortable chair.
