Achille Castiglioni

Achille Castiglioni, known for his love of interesting products, was born in Milan in 1918. Castiglioni, who changed the post-war design fashion, graduated from the Department of Architecture at the University of Milan and was a member of the XX. More forward-thinking than many designers of the century, Castiglioni’s most innovative direction was to challenge the dismissive notion of ‘ugliness’.
