Pio & Tito Toso

Pio (1973-) and Tito (1971-) are two brothers who work as architects and designers. Both graduated from the IUAV in Venice, they founded their own studio in 1996 based in the province of Treviso. Specializing in lamps, objects and small furnishings, their products are simple and intelligent, easy to use on a daily basis but driven by ingenious logic. At ease even with cheap materials such as plastic, they have a characteristic that is now rare in the world of design: they are in fact capable of creating popular products that are also accessible to the general public, without sacrificing anything in design quality. They have worked with brands such as Artemide, Luceplan, Lodes, Pallucco, Stilnovo and Vistosi in the lighting field but also with Pedrali, Calligaris, Cattelan Italia, Varaschin, Emu, Lapalma and many others in the furniture sector. There is also a long and fruitful collaboration with the Guzzini brand for table accessories. They are also active as architects, with a particular focus on exhibition stands. They have been awarded the Red Dot Design Award three times (2012, 2015, 2017).
