Joe Colombo

Joe Colombo (Milan, 1930–1971) was one of the greatest designers of the 20th century: a multifaceted, visionary genius, capable of turning ideas into real objects that are still striking today for their modern flair.
After an educational background at the Brera Academy and at the Politecnico of Milan, Joe Colombo began a prolific career and, in just a couple of decades, succeeded in expressing his innovative vision of the world as a dynamic modular living space pivoting on man and his existence. His all-embracing designs, whether for home interiors or urban planning, were based on technological solutions and new materials meant to satisfy every need, shaping the space and the objects in it, and favoring the daily activities of humans.
