Staffan Tollgard and Filippo Castellani

Staffan Tollgard and Filippo Castellani represent two complementary visions of contemporary design, united by attention to detail, authenticity, and a precise aesthetic. Born in Stockholm, Tollgard integrates the functionality of Scandinavian design with a timeless elegance that has defined his international career in both interior and product design. From his renowned London design boutiques, he cultivates an approach that prioritizes narrative and utility, in line with his ongoing collaboration with the Italian firm Porada.

Filippo Castellani, for his part, brings an Italian sensibility forged between Pisa, Florence, and Milan. His design is characterized by a balance between the essential and the unexpected, oscillating between limited editions and consumer products with the same aesthetic rigor. His style is direct yet unconventional, refined yet accessible, always imbued with a clear visual language. Together, Tollgard and Castellani build a conversation between cultures, where form follows meaning and design finds its most honest expression.
