In the late 60’s, a group of young architects
decided to produce the designs they needed
for their projects. Very soon many architects
and friends contacted them to buy their
products and in 1972 they decided to create
a company to produce them.
From the beginning, BD has strived to
combine the most unusual and modern
proposals with classic design pieces. Respect
for the masters is evident as much in the first
pieces of furniture from Gregotti as in the first
reissues of pieces signed by Terragni, Rietveld
and Mackintosh.

Bocaccio Design’s first
pieces were a little roguish.
This delightful, pious bed
head created by Xavier
Sust, one of the first
collaborators with the then
small production company,
has the appearance of an
exclusive piece from an
antique shop.

In reality it is a photographic
reproduction on a humble
piece of cardboard, as
are the silhouettes of the
Mackintosh chairs, placed
in the background.
