Minotti
Minotti was born in 1948 from an intuition of Alberto Minotti. The original artisan dimension of the company changes soon and, starting from the Sixties, assumes industrial personality and dimensions. The next step is due to the children, Renato and Roberto Minotti who, after the untimely death of their father in 1991, take the reins of the company and begin a process of growth and expansion towards international markets. Responsible for the company's strategies, the Minotti brothers share the creative line and the aesthetic principles of the products with the architect Rodolfo Dordoni, who in 1998 was appointed Artistic Director. The concept that best represents Minotti is certainly the ability to innovate in the sign of continuity. Key formula of Minotti identity is the full expression of the concept of "Made in Italy", which today combines tradition and technology in an indissoluble way: the knowledge of the artisans refines a product born from the most modern technologies, while the intelligence of the hands offers sensitivity and emotion to industrial precision.Read more

Rodolfo Dordoni

Rodolfo Dordoni
Rodolfo Dordoni (1954-2023) is one of the leading figures in contemporary Italian design. Refined, measured and elegant, through his creations he proposes a timeless, sober and elegant style, capable of never going out of fashion. Milanese by birth, he has had the opportunity to work with all the major brands of Italian and international design: from Poliform to Molteni & C., from Cassina to Flou, from Flos to Poltrona Frau. He was also the art director of several important brands: Cappellini (from 1979 to 1989), the company that launched him in the firmament of great Italian design, yet another great discovery by the greatest talent scout in the history of design, Giulio Cappellini; Foscarini, which led to it becoming one of the leading Italian lighting brands and Roda (since 2006), with which it was the first to bring high-end luxury design to outdoor spaces. However, his greatest successes remain those obtained with Minotti, a brand that under his artistic direction (since 1998) has grown and developed on all international markets, to become one of the most shining examples of success of Made in Italy in the world.Read more
