Italian Design Turns Simplicity into Beauty

Many of the best designs come from Italian creators. We all love Italian design from handbags and shoes to furniture, cars, clothing and luggage. Somehow, Italian designers just get design right. They know it and simply feel it, and can transform simplicity into complexity in one, maybe two, simple strokes. Intuitively, a simple line or a simple curve, scaled down to its essence, suddenly becomes a work of art, such as a fabulous pair of shoes, an eloquent table or even a quirky, fun and utterly inspired kitchen item!

It is truly amazing the way Italian designers’ minds work. Modern, elegant simplicity transforms into usable everyday products that function perfectly and yet could sit in a museum as a work of art. Now that’s design at its best!

If you want to be amazed by useful household creations, check out Alessi. For instance, take a look at the Il Conico Kettle. It doesn’t get simpler, yet more beautiful than that! A simple triangle, yet elegantly designed and functional, too. The Tui Pitcher is another great example of simple fluidity molded into a workable piece of art.

Designer objects at Alessi include kitchen utensils, barware, ice buckets, table accessories, pots, pans, and breakfast and dinner sets. Alessi has so much to add interest, fun and class to your home. Finished cooking for the night? No reason to put your bowls or pots away. Just leave them in a cherished display shelf or on your counter as part of your artful collection of home accessories. So show it off, use it and then show it off again. It goes from art to functional usage to art again. Now that’s Alessi and good design for the home. Better yet, that’s just good design!
