An Italian Celebration: B&B Italia



While paying homage to today’s 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy, I also wanted to celebrate the Busnelli family for regaining control of their company, B&B Italia.  The company, founded by Piero Ambrogio Busnelli in 1966, lost majority share of the company in 2002, but now the company is back in the right, entrepreneurial hands!  Here are some of my most favorite B&B Italia pieces that I could use over and over again…

Patricia Urquiola’s Criniline Armchair with High Backrest, polyethylene weave

Loto Simplice Collection tables and stool

Febo Chaise from the Max Alto Collection 2009

Mida AC Collection 2010 with red lacquered interior with a sleek 270 degree door rotation…

Clean + Classic = “George”
