Following the exclusive worldwide preview held during Milan Design Week 2024,
Molteni&C embarks on a journey around the world to present “Molteni Mondo. An Italian Design Story” in all the main Flagship Stores in the most relevant cities.
During Paris Design Week 2024, Molteni&C presents this monograph dedicated to the identity, history, and values of the company, for the first time in France in the Paris Flagship Store.
The book celebrates 90 years of innovation, design, industry, and corporate culture. Published by Rizzoli New York, it encapsulates all this with a cinematic narrative by the eye of photographer Jeff Burton, editorial care by Spencer Bailey, artistic direction by Studio Achermann from Zurich, introduction by Jean Nouvel, and postscript by Jacques Herzog.
The book published by Rizzoli New York traces the identity, relationships with architects and designers, history, symbols and distinctive features of this company, founded in 1934 in Giussano by Angelo Molteni and today an independent global industrial group and leader in high-end furniture.
An overview of a story all about ‘Made in Italy’, which focuses on partnerships with the biggest names from the world of design—Vincent Van Duysen, Ron Gilad, Jacques Herzog, Jasper Morrison, Jean Nouvel, Tobia Scarpa and Patricia Urquiola, to name but a few—the places at the Giussano Compound in Brianza, where the company headquarters and community are located, together with its production processes and technological innovations, craftsmanship and sustainability, the most significant prototypes and collections, contract projects and stores around the world, archives and museums.
The consolidated and ever-evolving identity of a managerial but still family-owned company, which grows and faces the future with the awareness of its social and cultural responsibilities.
