GIO PONTI –\u00a0An architect and a designer, Gio Ponti is famous for designing homes, public buildings, and everyday objects, but he also distinguished himself in the world of painting and stage design.\u00a0
\nDuring the 1930s, he conceived some of the most emblematic buildings in Milan that reflect the new architectural trends of the period: the home-tower in Corso Venezia, the Rai and Ferrania buildings, and the Littoria Tower in Parco Sempione.\u00a0
\nIn 1956, Ponti designed the Pirelli skyscraper and then dedicated himself to important residential complexes in Europe, the Middle East, Canada, the US, and South America. He began his collaboration with VENINI in the 1920s and created several lamps and objects for the brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
A true celebration of color, the cane collection is born from the re edition of objects designed by Gio Ponti for VENINI on the occasion of the 26th Venice Biennale in 1952. It consists of glasses, a vase, and an elegantly slender carafe, with a base that gradually tapers upwards, culminating in a delicately curved spout. The technique used is that of canes, which in this case involves the juxtaposition of six thin strips of cold-colored glass in Grey, Red, Sapphire, Green, Straw-yellow, and Amethyst. These strips are then fused together and skillfully shaped while hot, creating a vibrant and kaleidoscopic visual effect. This technique offers a lively variety of hues and shades that give a lively and dynamic appearance<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":281328,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[49522],"product_cat":[7753],"product_tag":[48366,49088],"giftcard-category":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-281335","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-venini-en","7":"product_cat-vasi-en","8":"product_tag-304-05-en-2","9":"product_tag-venini-en-336","10":"pa_brand-venini-en","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"taxable","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple","18":"add-to-wishlist-after_add_to_cart","20":"catalog-layout-default","21":"columns-xs-2"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
