About Aldo Rossi:

Aldo Rossi (1931-1997) is perhaps the greatest Italian architect of the second half of the 20th century. His his severe language of primary shapes, geometrical patterns and silent evocation created some of the most extraordinary works of architecture and design in postwar Europe.

About Alessi: 

Alessi, established in 1921, is a lynchpin of superb Italian design, committed to making the ordinary extraordinary. “A true design work must move people, convey emotions, bring back memories, surprise, and go against common thinking” - Alberto Alessi.
