BBPR Studio, founded by Gian Luigi Banfi, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, Enrico Peressutti, and Ernesto Nathan Rogers, stands as a key protagonist of post-war Italian architecture and design. During the 1950s, the studio expanded its architectural research into furniture design, creating pieces that fully reflected the principles of the Modern Movement and a strong focus on function and spatial coherence.


In this period, BBPR Studio designed custom-made furniture and limited-edition pieces, often produced on request for specific architectural projects, private interiors, and institutional spaces. Chairs, storage systems, and furnishings feature clean lines, rational structures, and carefully selected materials, combining high-level craftsmanship with modern experimentation.


BBPR Studio approached furniture as an integral part of architecture, developing exclusive, non-serial designs that are now highly sought after in the field of Italian design collecting and recognized as a fundamental contribution to 1950s Italian modernism.
