Quincoces–Dragò

David Lopez Quincoces and Fanny Bauer Grung are the architects behind Quincoces-Dragò & Partners, an architecture and design studio based in Milan. Their work is characterised by an essential style that resonates with its surroundings, respects and enhances the authenticity of spaces and favours natural and timeless materials.
Fanny Bauer Grug and David Lopez, founders of the Quincoces-Dragò studio, designed the Colonne collection for Bitossi in 2019. The shape imitates overlapping column elements, drawing inspiration from the great classics, staggered cylinders of different sizes and diameters, sometimes left with a smooth surface in others finished with an engraved texture with vertical or horizontal stripes.
The collection is composed of six proposals of deconstructed vases with different colour combinations, but always veering towards a neutral colour palette: ochre/green/black, black/terracotta, white/raquelé or white/terracotta.

Bitossi Ceramiche

Bitossi is a historic identity of Italian manufacturing, present since the second half of the nineteenth century in the area of Montelupo Fiorentino, Tuscany. The Bitossi manufactory, today Bitossi Ceramiche, belongs to the family for five generations and has been located in the same place since 1921. The company in the year 2014 was included in the Register of Italian Historical Enterprises. Bitossi production until the end of the 1940s reflects the traditional taste linked to local production, and then evolved into unique creations exported worldwide that still represent the excellence of Made in Italy. Many designers have approached the production of Manifattura Bitossi over the years, creating new collections. First of all, the architect Ettore Sottsass, who started to collaborate the Bitossi factory from 1955 to experiment and created new modern ceramics.
