Historias de Tacchini Italia

Bread and Butter: the building blocks of domestic happiness and health. And the inspiration behind Toogood’s newest collaboration with Tacchini.

How to create furniture that responds to the increasing demand for diverse functionality? Commission a diversity of designers. TACCHINI shows how it's done.

Head north and you'll find a thriving design culture where the level of consideration given to the way things look, feel and work isn't determined by their scale. Be they housing projects, chairs or taps, the Scandinavian approach to design continues to be a more democratic one, driven in no small part by the number of Nordic architects who design beyond buildings.

The leading Italian manufactuer Tacchini has reissued two of design legend Achille Castiglioni's striking designs – the 'Sancarlo' armchair and sofa, originally produced by Driade, and the 1958 'Babela' armchair, created with his brother Pier Giacomo for the Milan Chamber of Commerce.
