The avant-garde of Cappellini furniture
Founded in 1946, Cappellini has become synonymous with contemporary and avant-garde design. Giulio Cappellini's life is made up of encounters, objects and big dreams to be realized. The same is true for his company, which has created its identity from a strong idea of innovation capable of combining creativity, internationalization, avant-garde and craftsmanship. Over the years, it has featured some of the world's greatest designers, producing innovative and high quality furniture. Cappellini's journey into the world of design began in the late 1970s, taking it across continents to open the borders of Made in Italy.
Design explorers
A multicultural exploration guided by a fierce curiosity and a tenacious will to build the identity of a project whose watchword is experimentation. A network of young, often unknown, international talents is born. The only prerequisite: to arouse emotions and enter people's homes, the ultimate goal of design. This laboratory of ideas has discovered and seen the emergence of talents such as Jasper Morrison, the Bouroullec brothers and Marcel Wanders. Cappellini's collection is characterized by experimentation and exploration of new ways of living, furnishing the entire residential landscape from living room to studio and bedroom, but also tertiary spaces such as offices, reception areas, hotels and restaurants.
Iconic and iconic pieces
Many of these products have also become iconic pieces that are exhibited in museums around the world such as the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the MoMa in New York and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Giulio Cappellini is an iconic figure in the international design scene and is universally recognized as a talent scout for young designers. Giulio Cappellini is the artistic director of Cappellini and is responsible for the company's product range and communication strategies. He was recently named by Time magazine as one of the most important pioneers in the world. Cappellini is present all over the world. Its flagship stores are in Milan, Paris, New York, London, Dubai, Manila, Ho Chi Minh City and Tokyo. The head office is located between Milan and Lake Como, the region of the jewels of Italian design furniture.
Know-how
Cappellini's pieces are an ode to the coexistence of manual know-how and technology. Projects such as Jasper Morrison's Low Pad or Patrick Norguet's Rainbow Chair are perfect examples of this encounter that characterizes the brand. Beyond the innovative design gesture turned towards the future, Cappellini values concrete and sometimes ancestral processes based on the ideas of designers from all horizons who work with artisanal techniques linked to their own history.
