I was born and raised in Aosta, a small border town in Northern Italy. A country surrounded by greenery and among the highest snowy peaks in Europe. Here, being a mountain village, there has always been the cult of solid wood furniture. Il Legno, a material that in the past and still today warms the houses and the heart of the Alpine inhabitants. With the passage of time and with the arrival of new technologies, the furniture industry has undergone various changes, the materials themselves have changed. Solid wood is disappearing, to give way to new semi-finished products such as Multilayer, OSB, and Phenolic. But who has had the opportunity to observe closely, to feel and smell the real wood, will remember it as the first birthday present!
