"Remember tonight.. for it is the beginning of always.” | |
This week is a special one for it saw the launch of my new project and sister-soul-soul-sister to the blog: it is called Viografies and you can follow it from now on in www.viografies.com and in Facebook.
For the inaugural portrait I travelled to bella Italia to witness first hand the creative outcome of a family affair: brothers, architects and product designers Pio and Tito Toso welcome us into their home, studio, life,and ideas in Treviso.
You can read their full interview here.
When I asked them which are the design objects they wished they had designed themselves, here is what they put in their wish list:
Pio & Tito Toso's Wish List:
* Parentesi designed by Achille
Castiglioni and Pio Manzu for Flos: for the innovative design, simplicity, and
purity of an idea that remains absolutely intact when taking shape.
* Eros series of tables designed by
Angelo Mangiarotti for Agape: for the wise use of materials combined with a
balance of forces which create marble tables with seamless joints.
* TS522 Radio Cubo designed by
Marco Zanuso and Richard Sapper for Brionvega: for the synthesis of form and
function.
Kalimera!
