Mario Bellini

Collection: Mario Bellini

Mario Bellini is an Italian designer who started his own studio in 1962.

His work is diverse and conceptual, with a strong focus on proportions and shapes. This helps him combine form and function well in furniture, industrial design, and architecture. He has had a big influence on Italian design, often prioritizing a "human-centric" approach that combines industrial technology with tactile, soft materials. 

His work frequently features "stretched membranes" materials like leather or plastic wrapped over rigid skeletons, to create organic, sculptural shapes.
