What do they design?
Alberto Alessi creates innotive yet
practical household objects. His
products are stylish, well designed and
look great, but can still be used for
their proper purpose within the
household, for example, the plates in
the 2nd picture down in the right hand
column. His company, Alessi Design,
also employs other designers to
produce new items and keep the
company running, Alberto Alessi took
over the company in the 1980’s.
What is their style?
Alberto Alessi’s style is covered with its
curvature and unique(ness) of his
products. They combine brilliant
ingenuity and concept with pure
practicality. His works are modern,
different, practical and revolutionary.
He does not follow trends that other
designers have created, but follows his
own intuition and ideas and ‘rarely
plays the same note twice’, meaning
that after he has done something, he
usually doesn’t go back and do it again.
