Collection: Albino Celato
Albino Celato, creator and advocate of the brand De Castelli collections, has always focused his creative ability on rendering an object individual giving it newmeanings going beyond traditional conventions, privileging the importance of design aesthetics. The object, in this particular concept, is interpreted above all as a decorative feature and often acquires authentic artistic properties. A philosophy that considersmetal as the protagonistwas developed fromthe experience acquired in the company where, since as a youth, he has had the chance to experimentwithmetal and steel, and even though worked and crafted utilising simple techniques, produce unexpected and surprising design results.
Alongside his artistic talent, built over the years with experience,Mr Celato has decided to invest in ultimate generation production systems: this significant technological advancement has led the
company to producemetal and steel shapes and objects which would have otherwise been considered as impossible. Another important feature is Mr Celato's ongoing collaborationwith artists
and architects coming fromvarious backgrounds: a continuous exchange of ideas and experience not just at a creative / conceptual level, but also ongoing research into new metal processing and crafting techniques.
