Le Nuvole
The nonconformism of a “free spirit” of Italian design: a project that is ironically inspired by the lines of the 1950s and reinterprets them without ever losing sight of comfort.
ITALIAN
L’anticonformismo di uno “spirito libero” del design italiano, un progetto che si ispira ironicamente alle linee degli anni ‘50, e le rivisita senza togliere l’attenzione al confort.

“A free spirit like Monet, just as Giovannetti is in the field of furniture”
Creative, nonconformist, and revolutionary in their forms and materials, the sofas and all the seats produced by this company, which has made Italian design history, have always stood outside fashions and passing trends, becoming unique and inimitable. Just think of Le Nuvole, a sofa that follows Giovannetti’s innovative spirit, drawing inspiration from the lines of the 1950s with irony and originality.

AUTHOR BOX: S. Giobbi
He graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in Florence in the 1970s, then continued to collaborate there for ten years as assistant to Professor Leonardo Savioli. At the same time, he worked in design, collaborating with various furniture and furnishing accessory companies. He had also took part in important national competitions and exhibitions. Since then, he has gained experience in different sectors, creating everyday objects, tables, seating systems, beds, bathroom furniture, and lighting.
In design, his research focuses on two essential points: movement, used to make furnishing objects more usable and functional, and the search for new materials, working in molding technology for plastic, aluminum, and wood. His production for Giovannetti began in the 1990s; the architect’s design principles, together with attention to technological and stylistic innovation, made possible a significant and ongoing collaboration.
