From urban scale to a desk edge: Luca Scacchetti

Housing blocks, hotels, airport terminals, then the moulded frame that holds a desktop in place: Luca Scacchetti worked at every scale without changing method, and wrote essays on design methodology while he did it. Milan born, Politecnico trained, he taught industrial design for decades.

For Tecno he drew Ianus, an executive collection that grows from one desk to a fully panelled floor, industrially made yet dimensioned to order. La Mercanti rolls it out phase by phase, with the Wing armchairs for i4Mariani.
