Achille Castiglioni
Achille Castiglioni (1918-2002) was one of the most important and famous masters of Italian design of the twentieth century. With a playful and curious temperament, he has also brought these characteristics into his creations, always full of brilliant intuitions resulting from a strong ability to observe the behavior of people and their relationship with objects. Son of the sculptor Giannino Castiglioni, he works for the entire first part of his career alongside his brother Pier Giacomo (1913-1968), with whom he co-signs all his creations until the latter's death in 1968. Among his associations more fortunate are those with Flos, a company with which he collaborates since the foundation and with which he revolutionizes the concept of domestic lighting. He works also with Zanotta, who supportes him in his most daring experiments, with De Padova, with whom he carries out many projects in recent years of his life, and with Alessi. He has won the Compasso d'Oro eight times.Read more
