Paolo Rizzatto Paolo Rizzatto was born in 1941 in Milan. He earned his degree in Architecture in I965 at Milan Polytechnic. In his studio, he works as a freelancer in the fields of architecture, design and interior design, and continues to develop his experience as interior lighting designer. In 1978, alongside Ricardo Sarfatti, he founded Luceplan. He has designed for Arteluce, Luceplan, Alias, Knoll, Kartell, Philips, and Guzzini. Many of his projects and designs are included in the permanent collections of numerous Foundations and Museums, including Architectural Associations in London, Milan Triennale, Wave Hill Museum Centre in New York, Museum of Modern Art in New York, and Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
Contrary to the common idea, products in plastic materials are highly ecological for the reason that they can be recycled (with the exception of polyurethane, little used in Kartell furniture). Thus, Kartell products can be easily recycled. In order to simplify the recycling process, the various components of Kartell products can be easily separated and reduced to elements made of one single material. Moreover, the plastic parts of each product carry, clearly printed, an identification mark to determine the correct classification of the different kinds of plastic and their effective recycling.
Creativity and technology, glamour and functionality, quality and innovation: a combination of extraordinary factors together with a strategic vision of distribution has contributed to the lasting success of Kartell. By cultural and entrepreneurial choice, since its origins in 1949 the Italian manufacturer has chosen to characterize itself as the market leader in the production of designers articles which use technology and plastic materials. This choice requires a great understanding of materials and transformation technology. A leader in furniture design, Kartell addresses an international audience with a collection unique in originality, variety, size, and range.
