Piero Lissoni, born in1956, started his career as a designer in 1978 having gained his degree in Architecture at the Milan Polytechnic. Among his usual clients are: Alessi, Boffi, Cappellini, Cassina, Flos, Fritz Hansen, Glas, Kartell, Lema, Living Divani, Matteograssi, Poltrona Frau, Porro, Tecno and Wella. He has also designed Boffi showrooms around the world, Cassina showroom in Paris, Cassina IXC showrooms in Japan, in Italy the re-design of headquarters/factories for Boffi, Glas, Tecno and Living Divani and a series of private villas. Lissoni is one of the most prolific and successful furniture designers of the last few decades and his work for such a variety of manufacturers speaks for itself. Some of the Lissoni designs that Aram Store stocks are the Mex and Met sofas from Cassina, the PL200 chairs from Fritz Hansen, the Wall, Box and Bubble Rock sofas for Living Divani, and the Web shelving and Beam table for Porro.

Established in 1927, Cassina has been designing the future for over eighty years. During the 50’s the company, founded in Meda (Milan) by Cesare and Umberto Cassina, launched industrial design in Italy. Taking a completely new approach, which saw a shift from handcraftsmanship to serial production, the company began to work side by side with designers. Since then, Cassina has shown a striking inclination for research and the ability to spark multi-participant dialogues between the most talented designers of both the 20th and 21st centuries – Gio Ponti, Vico Magistretti, Mario Bellini, Philippe Starck & Piero Lissoni to name but a few - with quite diverse sensibilities, styles and creative spirits. Cassina holds the worldwide production rights for the iconic Le Corbusier range of furniture designs.
