Luciano Frigerio, born in 1928 in Desio, was an Italian designer known for his contribution to high-end cabinetmaking and furniture design. Raised in a family with a long tradition of woodworking, he combined his passion for design with his love for music. Over the years, Frigerio transformed the family business into a benchmark for quality furniture, collaborating with renowned Italian architects and designers.
His philosophy was based on the idea that architects could design unique, non-industrial furniture pieces. This vision led to the creation of sculptural furniture in solid wood and bed headboards cast in bronze, distinguishing his work from the mass production of the time. His collaborations with figures like Franco Albini and Paolo Portoghesi further established his reputation on the international stage.
Frigerio received several awards during his career, including recognition at the Salone Internazionale del Mobile and Mobillevante Bari. His impact on the design industry is reflected in permanent exhibitions and the presence of his works in major art galleries in Italy and abroad. Frigerio passed away in 1999 in Sanremo, but his legacy in high-quality furniture design continues to inspire.
Frigerio di Desio was a renowned Italian furniture company known for producing high-quality, design-forward pieces. Founded and led by Luciano Frigerio, the company had its roots in a family tradition of fine woodworking, started by his father Giovanni in 1889. Luciano carried on this legacy while introducing a modern and innovative vision to the business.
During the 1960s and 1970s, Frigerio began to explore furniture design in collaboration with leading Italian architects and designers, including Franco Albini, Sergio Asti, and Paolo Portoghesi. These partnerships helped elevate the brand to an excellence center for luxury furniture, particularly known for one-of-a-kind sculptural creations.
Frigerio's approach to design manifested in the creation of sculptural furniture in solid wood and bed headboards cast in bronze. These innovative and distinctive pieces set the company apart from the industrial production common at the time.
Luciano Frigerio's vision pushed the company toward the international market, and over the years, Frigerio opened showrooms in several Italian cities, becoming a go-to for design lovers and collectors of high-end furniture. The company received accolades at various design fairs and events, solidifying its reputation for excellence. After Luciano Frigerio's passing in 1999, the legacy of the brand lived on through its works, exhibited in prestigious art galleries in Italy and internationally, contributing to its continued acclaim in the world of collectible design.
