Alessandro La Spada
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.
