New furniture designs emerging

Bizzoni factory, Bologna

Director Richard Coutts and Baca’s Riccardo Pellizzon dropped-in at the Buzzoni workshops this week as part of the company’s plans to develop unique furniture designs to accompany Baca’s groundbreaking buildings.

In-keeping with Baca’s innovative, high-quality ethos, the bespoke furniture design element has evolved organically to truly compliment Baca’s architecture and offer its clients an all-encompassing design experience without compromise.

Buzzoni are one of the world’s leading fine furniture makers, counting names such as Stella McCartney and Louis Vuitton amongst their clientele, and with their pieces being found in some of the world’s most exclusive flagship stores.  Baca witnessed the sizeable workshop in action, skilfully combining traditional craftsmanship with the latest in cutting-edge design technology.

Clients accompanying the team to Milan were able to observe the care and attention that is lavished upon each item.  As an exciting taster, Baca were also able to present them with mock-ups of the furniture designs that will ultimately grace their future home.
