About this piece
Italian architect and industrial designer Anna Castelli Ferrieri studied architecture at Milan Polytechnic, and in 1943 married Giulio Castelli, a chemical engineer who founded Kartell in 1949 to make high-quality designer objects from plastic.
From 1946 to 1947 Anna Castelli Ferrieri was editor of the architecture magazine Casabella Costruzioni and at the same time founded her own architecture practice that collaborated with the architect Ignazio Gardella on projects in Milan, Turin, and Genoa. She also designed the Kartell company headquarters in Binasco and buildings for the car maker Alfa Romeo in Arese. From 1965 onwards, she was involved in designing objects for Kartell and other Italian manufacturers.
At Kartell, experimenting with different kinds of plastic, she designed many innovative objects including this Componibili stackable container elements made of ABS plastic.
The modular elements were designed to meet different needs and to fit perfectly into every room in the home. Componibili first appeared in 1967 and have become a timeless furnishing classic.
I have one blue and one olive green. Each is a three tier storage unit, in very good vintage condition.
The dimensions are:
42cm diameter;
69.5cm height.
