Archirivolto was founded by Claudio Dondoli e Marco Pocci as an industrial design and architecture studio. Claudio and Marco, during their architectural studies in Florence, set up a experimental theatrical group. Keeping all together, they chose to deal with design. Their interest in theatre influenced strongly the direction of the new study: creativity, sense of reality, respect and attention to the public. For Archirivolto, design means beauty, harmony and freedom; it can not be bound by strictly, established rules, neither be a privilege of a social or cultural class: «the designer has to create a beauty within everybody's reach and to come up to more and more people». The research of material and processes is one of the most important activities of the studio, done to obtain the best result in cost-benefit ratio terms. The design studio Archirivolto has premises in Colle Val d'Elsa, in the heart of Tuscany from where they find inspiration everyday.

In the BrogliatoTraverso design studio we know our job is a great privilege:

We can give life to objects that surround people.

The beauty of these objects is the expressive synthesis of our partnership with design brands that produce them. This vision, combined with professionality, technical experience, passion for research and innovation, has allowed BrogliatoTraverso to receive some of the most important international design prizes, such as Red Dot Design Award, Good Design Award and iF Design Award.

Gino Carollo was born in Vicenza. In 1990 he began his work in the industrial design sector, collaborating also as an art director with prestigious Italian and International companies in the area of furniture.

Commissioned by Assarredo, he planned the exhibition andimagery for the Italian Pavilion at the International Furniture Fair in Cologne in 1992 and 1993, as well as the Italian Pavilion at the Interieur Fair in Vienna in 1992.

In 2012 he received  the Interior Innovation Award in Cologne for the product "Bookless" of Interlübke.

In 1999 he opened Studio28 GinoCarollo, trying to create a qualified team to support the companies of the branch. The design of products, connected to the engineering and the realization of models and prototypes, turned out to be useful tools, which let the studio have important results and establish long-term collaborations. The industrial design activity of Studio 28 have been developed and expanded in the last years, with the introduction of other sectors, in particular covering the field of architectural planning of exposition spaces, showrooms and corporate identity. 

Giuseppe Viganò devotes all his time to industrial planning of furniture items and to the art direction of companies of this sector. As designer, he has a creative spirit and an associated sense of beauty, which he rediscovers each time and realises in every new project. The planning research is the base of his creative thought, which always leads him to achieve new goals. New materials often become a starting point to create not only a product, but also complete collections. The research of references from the art world, fashion and poetry are often the occasion to approach the product in a tangential way; the majority of his well known products were created thanks to painting concepts or glamorous details, other times are poetic gestures that create seducing forms.

The Butterfly table, the first collaboration with Cattelan Italia, is an example, where form and complexity of realization find the correct synthesis between harmony and beauty.

Oriano Favaretto was born in 1956 in Silea (Treviso). He attended the "Accademia delle Belle Arti" where he had the opportunity to meet Emilio Vedova, important teacher of graphic signs.  Another important experience was the cooperation with Ennio Chiggio, as trainee and collaborator.

Piero de Longhi qualified as Art teacher in 1968 and began his professional career in graphic design. During the 70s, a period rich in its ferment of activities and suggestions, he was fascinated by the industrial design of which he understood the enormous communicative potential. His constant research of forms, which combines taste and a sense of time, led him collaborate with Cattelan Italia, when it was founded in 1979. During the 80's and 90's he linked his name to products, that are nowadays some of our classics. Attracted by the evolution of the tools, materials and construction technologies, he has faced up to the demand, that contemporary design requires: create evergreen products, which withstand the succession of fashion and trends.

He was born in Chiampo near Vicenza in 1967. After studying Fine Arts in Venice, he founded his own design studio in 1993. He has combined the activity of product design, especially for the furniture field with his other interests, namely, research, materials, manufacturing processes and technology.

In the sector of marble and natural materials, he has obtained several awards for his works with some important firms. He currently teaches design at the University of Ferrara; his projects have been published in books, magazines and exhibited in museums and international events.

Marzia and Leo Dainelli's style is made of harmonious shapes, colours and materials, supporting Interior Design and Architecture. Marzia and Leo are partners in their private life, during creative activities and also in business. Their different sensitivities give a balance to every design and proposal and are almost characterized by clean lines, that establish a fine equilibrium between "minimalism" and "decorative". They founded Dainellistudio in 2007, in the heart of Tuscany, to keep in direct and constant contact with important craftsmen and, at the same time, also with a nature and an artistic heritage that has always been in favor of aesthetic influence and taste, where shapes, colours and materials play a key role in creating the identity of this region. Dainellistudio's team of graphic artists and architects is composed mainly of young talents, who can suggest research topics and trends in both sign and environments.

Projects Interiors, Directions and Artistic Collaborations with leading '"Made in Italy" follow each other over the years, as the firm has had the opportunity to design every element, which is necessary to create both public and private spaces: from the carpet to the lamps, sofas to mirror, armchairs to the library, tables to the chairs. Dainellistudio invents, designs and creates spaces, which express a style, respecting and promoting craftsmanship, materials and colours that reflect the rules of the contemporary Tuscany.
