FontanaArte Paola Navone Pendant lamps

The story of FontanaArte and its innate connection with glass and luminosity coincides with the emergence and diffusion of Italian design, thanks to the presence of Gio Ponti and his intuitive promotion of a new cultural cohesion in the age of industrialization. The birth of FontanaArte in 1932 responded to the need to make the material and sculptural qualities of glass available to the creativity and ingenuity of the new generations of designers, artists and decorators, in a period in which, especially in Milan, the production industrial as one of the multiple art forms.

 

Even today, in the twenty-first century, the Art that Ponti wanted to incorporate into the company brand continues to be the foundation of an identity capable of existing beyond each single object in series.
The timeless spirit, in balance between art and industry, is the inspiration that guides the contemporary production of FontanaArte, suspended between clarity and perdurability.
