His frequent visits to prestigious studios like Canturine, where he often met masters like Gio' Ponti, Franco Albini, Carlo De Carli and Tapio Wirkkala, lead to the transformation of his small family business into a company oriented to the International market. with the opening of 10 showrooms in the biggest Italian cities, one of which was in Via Montenapoleaone, Milan where many Haute Couture Fashion Designers had their workshops, such as Giusta Collini Style - owned by Giusta Collini - and Gabriella Crespi.
