Description: In 1989, ALESSI took over the company PIAZZA BATTISTA, one of the oldest traditional wood turners in the Strona Valley on Lake Orta. Alberto Alessi named his label TWERGI and commissioned Milton Glaser for the CI and some of the best-known designers for the product designs. The aim was to transport traditional woodworking techniques into the present day.Andrea Branzi (1938 - 2023) studied architecture in his native city of Florence. In 1966, he founded the Archizoom Associati with Paolo Deganello, Gilberto Corretti and Massimo Morozzi. The group is considered the founder of anti-design.
