From the Mind of the Designer

The piece was designed by Anna Castelli-Ferrieri, who served as the chief designer at her own company, Kartell, from the mid-1960s. The Milan native completed her architecture studies in 1943 and married Giulio Castelli after graduation. The couple founded the furniture manufacturer in 1949. Professionally, Anna Castelli-Ferrieri initially focused on urban planning and architecture. Among other projects, she also designed the main office of her company in Binasco, Italy. She worked as a designer from the mid-1960s and served as chief designer in her own company. Until the 1990s, she also taught industrial design at the Polytechnic University of Milan. Characteristic of her work are round shapes and clear lines.
