Italy Design Philosophy

As Umberto Eko, a famous writer and art critic, said, "if there is a design theory in other countries, Italy has a set of design philosophy, maybe a set of design thinking system."

This design pcends time constraints, and even decades later, it still looks like the charm of innovation.

"Small to a spoon, big to a city, should be designed."

This is an incisive summary of Genesto Rogers's design philosophy in the book "from spoon to city" by architect of Italy.

Italians put this idea in every aspect of life -- whether it is a chair, a table or a lamp, the designer uses modern design as an art and culture to operate, but never forget to combine art and function perfectly. They will not only live, but also understand the position of art in life.

The diverse and bold avant-garde designs created by their hands have long been the classics of the world, attracting worldwide attention.

In fact, the history of modern design in Italy is not as long as that in Germany, Holland, England and so on. Up to now, there is still no specialized design institute in Italy, and the designers in Italy have basically graduated from the Institute of architecture.

Wherever they are engaged in interior design, furniture design and industrial product design, or graphic design and costume design, all designers can be said to be architects because they hold Diploma in architecture.

Because of this, the design of Italy will be so different. Designers, like designing a building, generally create every design product, paying attention to following the trend, attaching importance to national characteristics, and emphasizing individual talents. Their design is a combination of traditional crafts, modern thinking, personal abilities, natural materials, modern technology, new materials and so on.

However, designers in Italy occasionally deviate from the rule.

In 1980, designer Eto Sottas set up the "Memphis" group, which triggered the most striking postmodern design in 1980s.

Their designs, with amusement, banter, jokes and gaudy methods, and a ridicule attitude, have achieved a series of completely different effects from orthodox designs. Pop style interior decoration and furniture are the product of this trend of thought.

However, as a practical art, functionality has always been a constant standard. The design of "Memphis" uses bright colors to emphasize the ornamentation of objects. So far, the experiment is far more practical.

Thus, after the "Memphis", the smart Italians developed a more mature design Road on the basis of absorbing the advantages of these experimental designs.

Today's modern home design in Italy has both the enjoyment of visual art and its practical function. It is only because the aura of shape is too dazzling that it ignores its functional advantages.

In fact, a large number of works from the designers of Italy have taken full account of the basic functional needs of people's lives.

They pay attention to manual and overall technical content, so that all forms with different unique materials can perfectly integrate with human body and produce signs of the times.

At the same time, designers in Italy have suggested that in the contemporary era of continuous pressure growth, furniture has not only provided a space for rest and storage of objects, it should also help us restore our lost mood and provide a comfortable refuge.

The furniture created by such a concept enables its owners not only to have a functional use value, but also to decorate only for the fashion atmosphere. The designers in Italy use their respect for furniture manufacture to produce eternal value, not vulgar or rich.

This is why the modern home design in Italy is enduring charm.

This hope lamp named "HOPE" won the German red dot design award this year.

A series of polycarbonate lenses form the lampshade of the chandelier. This special material can soften the light. At the same time, the principle of magnifying the light source by lens is used to make a simple small bulb play the palace lighting effect. It can sprinkle the light in every corner of the house, completely free from the restrictions of space, thickness and weight, creating a pleasant, sparkling, and banquet atmosphere.
