Franco Albini’s 1928 desk combines glass, steel and wood with striking
clarity and balance. A clear demonstration of Albini’s rationalist design
philosophy and minimalist aesthetic, the design derives its appeal through
simplicity of form and celebration of material, without extraneous
ornamentation.

Franco Albini |
After graduating in architecture at Milan Politecnico, Franco Albini
worked simultaneously in fields of furniture, product design, architecture,
urban planning and interior design. His sentiments as a rationalist architect
translated into remarkably transparent furniture designs, which display a
knowledgeable use of materials while presenting their internal structure and
processes of production. |
