Zanotta – Ricordi double bed

Starting again from memories: Thinking back to the simple things, genuine, necessary An intimate object, the purity of a vivid memory, of everyday life, simple and authentic. A bed with a simple structure and impeccable details, which describes the intimacy of life. The padded headboard gives comfort when reading, the horizontal rod and the feet are in matt black painted metal and fit softly into the natural or black-stained ash of the vertical uprights and the structure covered in fabric. Search for empathy and confidence between the object and those who use it, back to a time when things were made to last and accompany the beauty of life over the years.

Spalvieri & Del Ciotto

Simone Spalvieri and Valentina Del Ciotto, both born in 1982, met in 2003.
Having graduated in Industrial Design and Interior Design respectively from Milan Politecnico, they immediately became a couple both in their personal and professional lives.They lived and worked in Milan and London before moving their base to Tolentino, a small village surrounded by nature.
Spalvieri & Del Ciotto design studio is a meeting place and melting pot of ideas, research and experimentation.
Their work, characterised by formal, functional purity, is based on the idea that every designer product needs to be a value that can be passed on to future generations and contains and conveys a piece of our history and our culture.
Through design, they endeavour to render new materials and new technologies more people-friendly, with the aim of making more innovative objects easier to understand and use.
In 2013 they were winners of the “Top Young Italian Industrial Designers Prize”, with an exhibition at the Italian Cultural Institute in New York entitled “Slow Design Exhibition”. They won international awards such as the Red Dot Award, the China Good Design and the German Design Awards.
They have been working with Zanotta since 2020.

Zanotta

Fondata nel 1954, Zanotta è riconosciuta come una delle maggiori protagoniste della storia del design italiano. In particolare dagli anni ‘60, guidata dall’intuito e dalla straordinaria capacità imprenditoriale del suo fondatore Aurelio Zanotta, conquista la scena internazionale grazie a prodotti emblematici per l’innovazione formale. La ricerca tecnologica sostenuta dalla continua evoluzione della qualità di materiali e processi produttivi è una tra le migliori del mondo. La storia colta e preziosa di Zanotta si rinnova nel 2017 nell'unione con Tecno avviando un progetto comune. Questo comporta il conseguente potenziamento delle sinergie e delle strategie commerciali a livello internazionale sotto la guida di Giuliano Mosconi. Porta l’ironia nell’universo domestico, che suggerisce modalità diverse per sentirsi meglio nel mondo della casa, che per prima ha inserito nel proprio catalogo le opere dei grandi maestri del design, facendo nascere una “collezione” ineguagliabile di capolavori, premiati ed esposti nei più importanti musei del design.
