Pietro Arosio
Pietro Arosio was born in 1946 in Lissone, near Milan.
He learnt his profession at the research centre of a com-
pany specialising in the production of metal furniture
for communal spaces. This experience led to the emer-
gence of a design philosophy that developed over time
through his work as an industrial designer. He began
his career in 1972, and was already winning accolades
in 1983, receiving the Casaviva d’Oro award. The funda-
mentals of his work include essentiality, research into
new materials and technologies, and attention to detail
and to the engineering implications of his designs.
Pietro Arosio is fully aware of the emotional impact his
products can have, and has worked in partnership
with various internationally-acclaimed artists, including
Nespolo, Del Pezzo, Hsiao Chin, Tilson, Rotella and
Keizo. A number of his pieces have been exhibited at
the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and at the
Munich modern art museum Die Sammlung.
