Antonio Citterio: “Outstanding design takes courage”

Antonio Citterio: “Outstanding design takes courage”

The northern Italian city of Milan is considered the center of the furniture world. If you want to make it in the industry, you have to exist here. In a series, we present the creators and designers who hold all the strings in their hands. Part two: Antonio Citterio.

Mr. Citterio, many classic furniture items come from Italy. What makes your design so special?
In Milan you can find the breeding ground for our creativity. The creative scene is based here, and there are also many craft and industrial companies in the surrounding area. We are in constant dialogue. Looking back, I believe that many classics came about because they weren’t designed by product developers, but by architects. A design school? When I was in Milan, that didn’t exist. You studied architecture.
