Italy Dream Design

Gandia Blasco
Gandia blasco is more than a piece of furniture, much more… 20 years later.  20 years of dialogue with shapes and exterior spaces: terraces, gardens, hotels and beaches worldwide, deserts being inhabited – utopia is only possible when you daydream. It began as a dream atop a cliff on the island of Ibiza, and time tested its perseverance. Just as in the fable with its moral ending, wind and storms have continuously challenged its tenacity, but have been unable to break it. In 1996 the dream came true; it took shape, and Gandia blasco the house was born out of the geometry of its natural environment, rising between the white of the clouds until it became confused with the depth of the sky, on the ledge of rocks and pine trees on that cliff top located on the north east of Ibiza.

Sensuality, intuition, clinging to dreams… reality or dreaminess? The house began to be built in this magical place where the white light of the Mediterranean blurs the cubic architectural contours. Out of this simple volume, a contemporary reinterpretation of vernacular Ibizan architecture, the first collection of Gandia Blasco outdoor furniture, Na Xemena, was born, both by extension and necessity.

Serralunga
Serralunga was founded in Biella in 1825. Serralunga is the name of the family that has been the creative and entrepreneurial heart of the company for six generations, manufacturing modern outdoor furniture. The company was started as a tannery and then moved into leather processing for industrial purposes. The real revolution arrived with the processing of plastic and then with the rotational moulding technique imported from the U.S.A., which gave origin to countless Italian design objects, such as outdoor lighting and contemporary furniture, all made in Italy.
