We’ve been designing innovative solutions since 1968.

Multidisciplinary from the start

Envisioning icons of everyday design

In 1976, FILA asked us to design a new felt pen. 35 years later, it’s still in production and can be found in virtually every Italian home.

Forging our own path with functional design

In the ‘80s and ‘90s, when Italian design was often associated with household furnishings, we focused on functional everyday objects, like packaging, dispensers, telephones, and switches.

As the digital realm has come to dominate our everyday lives both personally and professionally, our work, too, has extended to cover the interactions, experience and interfaces of the digital realm.
