On the occasion of Milan Design Week and the special SuperSalone event, Molteni&C and Salvatore Ferragamo renew their collaboration and present an installation dedicated to the Molteni&C Heritage Collection in the Salvatore Ferragamo Donna and Uomo boutiques in Via Montenapoleone.
In the windows of the two boutiques, Gio Ponti's Round D.154.5 armchair, reissued by Molteni&C more than 60 years after the original idea, is dressed in an exclusive Salvatore Ferragamo fabric, made entirely of natural fibres.
Round D.154.5 is the absolute icon of the 2021 Collection by Molteni&C. Careful study of drawings, photos and period materials, in collaboration with the Ponti Archives, has made it possible to faithfully reproduce a precious object.
SOLICITAR INFORMACIÓN
Round D.154.5 is also referred to as‘Otto Pezzi’ (Eight Pieces). In fact, there are eight pieces that make up the chair.
A product that has already been thought with a view to sustainability for industry, where we are talking about assembly, ease of production, but also packaging, with the solution of reducing bulk and transport to a minimum.
Values such as tradition, quality, respect for production processes and environment are fundamental of the identity of the two brands, Molteni&C and Salvatore Ferragamo.
Quality and durability.
The Molteni Group combines constant investment in research and technological innovation to give its products an intrinsic quality that lasts and acquires value over time. Concepts of quality and durability guide production, as a contribution to environmental sustainability.
Processes to protect the environment.
Our furniture is made of elements that are assembled to give life to the product. At the end of their life, the disassembled objects can be easily recycled. Natural materials such as glass and stone can thus be recovered through a virtuous process of circular economy.
Company sites.
In line with the company’s policy of containing and rationalising energy consumption, three company sites, Turate, Verano Brianza and the Upholstered Division in Giussano, have been equipped with photovoltaic systems positioned on their roofs.
Heritage Collection
Together with Round D.154.5, the windows of the two Salvatore Ferragamo boutiques are adorned with Aldo Rossi's iconic Carteggio secretaire, Gio Ponti's D.847.1 desk, Yasuhiko Itoh's MHC.2 bookcase and Aldo Rossi and Luca Meda's Piroscafo bookcase, a project that turns 30 this year and is presented for the occasion in a special colour from the Salvatore Ferragamo collection.
