Designer

Studio Simon

Dino Gavina, (1922-2007), was an Italian designer, whom began his career in the 40's working on stage sets.

He was convinced that design needed to be both modern and richly poetic, and soon began to gain support from many of the country's leading designers and architects including Carlo Scarpa, Enzo Mari, Marcel Breuer, to name but a few. 

His work in those years was an important starting point for what then came to be known as Italian Style, and has since come to stand for top quality, giving Italian design the prestigious reputation that it still enjoys today throughout the whole world.
