TECNOCUOIO®
Trademarked by the company in 1996, this innovative
material is composed of fnely milled leather
castoffs tanned with vegetal extracts, natural latex
(extract from the rubber tree) for bonding, natural
fats, salts and natural coloring agents. After adding
water, the mixture is pumped through a screen.
After being dried, pressed and refned, one obtains
a bonded leather fber material via a process similar
to that used in the production of paper. The result
is a high-quality regenerated leather boasting
elasticity that is both UV-resistant and water-
resistant, and which features a perfectly smooth
surface.
SIMONE FANCIULLACCI
CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF RUDI
Simone Fanciullacci, born in 1982 in Genoa, Italy,
graduated from Milan Polytechnic in 2008.
After having perfected and enriched his own design
practice with several experiences, both in the feld
of furniture design and in that of jewelery, he founded
his own studio based in Milan in 2010.
The studio was immediately conceived as the
concretization of a mental space, an atelier in which
different souls in apparent contradiction can emerge
in search of a balance, of a creative tension.
A laboratory in which to experiment with different
materials and processes, combining intellectual
theorizing and artistic research to transform them into
matter, immersed in an atmosphere of organized chaos.
This is how countless projects were born both for
companies and for galleries, some designed for
large-scale distribution, others conceived as unique
pieces, projects that face complexity without shortcuts,
always looking for a new perspective and new expressive
languages.
Since 2019, Simone Fanciullacci has been entrusted
with the creative direction of RABITTI1969 by
GIOBAGNARA and RUDI by GIOBAGNARA,
for which he designed a wide number of collections
imbued with his sense of unrestrained creativitywith
an elegant yet playful twist.
