\u201cIn every project I design custom made furniture, both for residential or retail projects, because I believe that each work requires a special attention to furniture details.\u201d <\/p>\nCarlo Donati<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In 1996, Carlo Donati<\/span><\/strong> decided to create not only his own firm \u201cStudio Donati<\/strong>\u201d, but also the \u201cFarnese Contract\u201d with Adriano Donati and Massimo Avanzini, which operates as a general contractor, working with the most successful design studios.<\/a><\/span><\/strong> His work is mostly focused on different types of interior design projects<\/a><\/span><\/strong> that highlight the power of fine craftsmanship<\/a><\/span><\/strong> techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a peculiar contemporary signature style that features deep roots in the past, Carlo Donati <\/span><\/em><\/strong>loves to search for inspiration in the architectural landmarks and Italian design references<\/span><\/strong> <\/a>of the post-war modernism (like\u00a0 Gio Ponti, Osvaldo Borsani, Franco Albini), as well as the magic abstract scenography by Bob Wilson, the interiors in Stanley Kubrick\u2019s or Quentin Tarantino\u2019s movies. Every design project<\/span><\/strong>,<\/a> no matter the style (contemporary, mid-century or modern), his minimalist approach is always contaminated by chromatic and graphic suggestions inspired by the theme chosen in the planning process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe it\u2019s important to be very updated on the actual trends of industry but at the same time to be able to work on different tracks out of the mainstream in order to anticipate new trends, be original and try in our little field to be some kind of disruptive.\u201d<\/p>\nCarlo Donati<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Passionate about the lines of the mid-century design<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, Carlo Donati<\/span><\/em><\/strong> believes that this era was the period of a time period where elegance and lightness were reference points, so the inspiration for his new furniture collection<\/a><\/span><\/strong> wasn\u2019t hard to find. \u201cI absolutely believe that it will be a fundamental reference in the luxury design<\/a><\/span><\/strong> since we\u2019re talking about timeless elegance<\/span><\/strong>,<\/a>\u201d he explained to the CovetED team. <\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Carlo Donati<\/span><\/em><\/strong>, this partnership was the perfect opportunity to combine the great tradition of the master artisans, through the finest Portuguese craftsmanship<\/a><\/span><\/strong> culture, with a more Mediterranean mood. For those of you who don\u2019t know, Portuguese craftsmanship<\/a><\/span><\/strong> has a well-known old tradition especially in relation to cork that is a light and resistant material and moreover an example of recyclable and sustainable energy.
