Designer:  Joe Colombo

Joe Colombo (1930-1971) was one of the greatest Italian designers and architects. Although he died prematurely, 

his objects are well-known for their function, aesthetics and technological innovation yet with a contemporary design. 

Among his most famous achievements we find Boffi's Minikitchen, the Multi-Chair armchair and the Boby trolley for B-Line, 

the Fresnel, Globe and Coupé lamps for OLuce and the iconic Tube armchair designed for Cappellini.
