Vittorio Introini is an Italian designer and artist of postwar and contemporary art born in 1935. His works were presented at the KANAL exhibition at the Pompidou Center in Paris.
Architect and passionate designer, Vittorio Introini began his design activity in the sixties of the twentieth century. The charge of innovation and change of his architectural works and design is given by his rich cultural background and the breadth of cultural and architectural references. His language unites different
elements including individual creativity, subjectivity of compositional systems and knowledge of new materials.
Introini’s design activity begins at the sunset of the Modern Movement due to the ideological contradictions of the multiple components. On his works the role of Internationalism and Antistoricism are crucial. The decisive renewal occurred with the contribution of Ernesto N. Rogers that allowed to acquire, in advance of the international conservative criticism, the awareness of the individuality of cultures and places in antithesis to the Movements mentioned. The concept of "context" opened new analytical horizons progressively extended from urban morphology and semiology to the design method. Introini’s design, in harmony with the Neorationalism of Rossian derivation, can be traced back to the following principles: typology, syntax, language.

Saporiti
Established initially as Fratelli Saporiti in 1950, mid-century Italian furniture maker Saporiti Italia has a reputation for avant-garde and enduring designs, and its tables, chairs and cabinets inspire all who have had the pleasure of contemplating them.
Furniture designer Sergio Saporiti founded Fratelli Saporiti with a vision of creating pieces ahead of their time. By staying on top of the cultural shifts taking shape during the postwar era — and finding inspiration in the craftsmanship, durability and sensibility of Scandinavian design — Saporiti was able to tap into what the public wanted. His focus on using high-quality materials ensured that every welcoming chair and table could be used and enjoyed for decades to come.
In 1965, Saporiti collaborated with Italian designer Alberto Rosselli, a pioneer of the industrial design movement. They created such iconic pieces as the Confidential sofa, the Moby Dick chaise lounge and the Jumbo chair. In the 1970s, Saporiti initiated another collaboration with Italian designer Giovanni Offredi. The prolific partnership resulted in universally renowned designs like the Paracarro table and the Sail chair. Together, they also created the curving Wave sofa, which was popular in international markets.
The joint projects were a success, and the brand opened many international showrooms throughout the 1970s. This era also led to a partnership with Missoni — the celebrated Italian fashion brand worked closely with Giorgio Saporiti to create rugs and fabrics for its range of seating and more, and later, in 1983, Missoni expanded into home furnishings. At this time, the company officially rebranded as Saporiti Italia and released a line of customizable furniture, including the Avedon sofa, in collaboration with designer Mauro Lipparini.
Since then, Saporiti Italia has pivoted to furniture contracting and design management. To this day, the company remains under the ownership of the Saporiti family, and vintage Saporiti furniture continues to capture the imagination of collectors worldwide.

Giovanni Offredi Sunny Round Table in Wood and Smoked Glass by Saporiti 1970s
By Giovanni Offredi, Saporiti
Located in Montecatini Terme, IT

Designed by Giovanni Offredi and produced by Saporiti in the 1970s.
The manufacturer's label is present on the table base.
The Sunny table can accommodate from 2 up to 4 seats.
It's easily adaptable to different ambiance and spaces.
Giovanni Offredi was a prominent Italian furniture and product designer of the second half of the 20th century. As opposed to most of the other Italian furniture designers of his time, Giovanni Offredi was not an architect, nor did he start designing early in his professional career. Instead, Offredi partially fits the career path of some of the talented contemporary designers who pursue product design outside of formal education in architecture.
The earliest furniture design work known by Giovanni Offredi consists of exemplary furnishings made specifically for some of wealthy families in Milan. Such is the case of the works done by Offredi for Casa C., in 1960, in Gorgonzola, a small town 14 miles from Milan. These works were designed with a surprisingly minimal simplicity and elegance, and they also clearly display a hallmark of his design work with the use of angular lines and exposed metal or wood frames—not unlike some of the modern Scandinavian designs of the time.
In the late 1960s, Giovanni Offredi met Sergio Saporiti, the owner of an Italian design shop and furniture maker Saporiti, and in 1970, Offredi formalized a partnership with the furniture maker. This partnership would be long and successful and resulted in many furniture designs of distinct precision that were clearly modern and innovative and that went on to enjoy considerable commercial success.
The most prominent furniture designs that Offredi made for Saporiti include the Paracarro table...
