Brand Concept

Founded in Carugo in 1946, Cappellini transformed from a small traditional workshop into an internationally recognized design house under Giulio Cappellini, who joined with the precise intent to bring innovation to the global market. The brand's spirit is to dare, provoke, and take risks—creating a collection of 'contemporary classics,' focusing on longsellers rather than bestsellers. Simplicity, elegance, and a fearless approach to new materials define its aesthetic.

Signature Products

  • Thinking Man's Chair 1987 Jasper Morrison's tubular and flat metal chair—quiet, precise, and intellectually rigorous—was an early sign of his career-defining reductive aesthetic and became a Cappellini icon.
  • Knotted Chair 1996 Marcel Wanders' knotted aramid-fiber rope chair entered MoMA, the V&A, and the Stedelijk Museum collections and became one of the most celebrated chairs of the 1990s.
  • Felt Chair 1993 Marc Newson's organic, asymmetric felt-upholstered chair on steel legs exemplifies Cappellini's attraction to bold sculptural experimentation with unexpected industrial materials.
