We started out with just one chair in 1923.

Today, with more than 800 catalogue products sold throughout 100 countries, we can safely say that we made the right choice by deciding that Calligaris should be a company that reflects the times.

The affinity for fresh ideas permits the most interesting and fruitful concepts to become our furniture and accessories that decorate people’s surroundings; creating unique spaces that reflect the personalities of their occupants.

 

We balance technique, aesthetics, reason, and emotion — a mixture of contemporary design and flexibility. This is how Calligaris became an international brand of quality and creativity. Our wide, well-structured range of functional furniture is unmistakably stylish and suits individual tastes by blending shapes, colors, and materials for an infinite number of options.

Pubblimarket2 signs creativity and production, for the realization of the new ADV campaign, worldwide starting from April 2020.

In the overall context that includes the home, but especially the people who live in it, Calligaris expands and reinterprets the concept “MY HOME”, dressing it with new meanings related to the way of living at home, getting closer to the style and personality of the individual, becoming attractive and desirable, managing to connect the world lifestyle with the world of design.

 

Thus, the well-known design house created a new manifesto, MY LIFE, MY STYLE, choosing a new vision, certainly more current, communicating its products and mission, placing the home at the center of the scenario as an authentic and accessible atmosphere, in which to be reflected, transcending every trend of the moment. A frame that increases the importance of people, to better reflect the taste of everyone, offers different furniture for all environments, to turn every home into a real nest.

Therefore, Calligaris refuses to imagine the house as a museum to visit and not to live in, and opens the door to a welcoming and lived-in atmosphere, timeless, able to tell the living part of the home and abandoning a purely trendy vision.

 

“Our catalog contains a collection of proposals for furnishing all the rooms of the house, leaving the customer with the possibility to customize most of the products according to his taste and imagination. “Because today it is important to live refined, but above all practical and ingenious space, suitable for all our needs” – comments Stefano Rosa Uliana, CEO of the Calligaris Group.

 

 

“New York, Milan, London, Tokyo: each city has its own style, each personality has its own look, each of us has our own way of expressing ourselves and leaves a personal mark on the world. Clothes, gestures, ideas, habits and even the place we live in: everything comes together to define our style, a “total look” that extends beyond the boundaries of our body to give life to an environment that resembles us and tells something of our story.”

From September 5 to 10, Salone del Mobile 2021 was held in Milan, in a special edition with a very different formula. Supersalone, the name chosen for the event, was attended by all major brands that presented some of this year’s novelties through vertical stands with a strong visual impression. Calligaris with the motto “My life, my style” presented a collection that increasingly carefully improves the quality of life, offering products that adapt to every experience and style, combining the concept of tradition with the concept of innovation, thanks to the commitment to sustainability.

Calligaris won the FSC® Furniture Awards 2021, the first European edition of the competition created by the Forest Stewardship Council to award certified FSC® companies and the best sustainable products in the furniture industry.

In particular, Calligaris received a special award for the best FSC® labeling with the new Lina chair. An important recognition of the company’s ongoing commitment to work in a careful and sustainable manner, with full respect for the environment.

The winners were announced by a jury composed of FSC® representatives from 11 competing European countries. The award ceremony was preceded by a round table on the use of wood from certified sources, attended by representatives of FSC® International, international NGOs, forest owners, retailers and journalists, and moderated by BBC designer and star Oliver Heath.

These two little words are the credo that calligaris chose for his international communication campaign because they perfectly sum up his philosophy. but what is actually hidden behind these two words?

“My home”. These two little words hide an entire approach to life behind their apparent simplicity. Besides being the title of the magazine, Moj dom is also the slogan of Calligaris’ international advertising campaign, and it was chosen because it perfectly reflects the spirit of our time and embodies that modern point of view that focuses on the individual and includes much more than just furnishing your home. Today, everyone has the right to be and do whatever they want within the walls of their home. The first rule is that there are no rules. That’s why it’s important to have a partner like Calligaris working alongside you. With its affordable design, versatility and wide range of furnishing products, it is the perfect ally as it allows each of us to express who we are, how we see the world and what makes us go through the pieces of furniture we choose. “My home” means a lifestyle, and in order to gain a better insight into this concept, we invited two women who contributed to the creation of Calligaris’ new advertising campaign to explain it to us better. Line Klein, a respected Danish photographer whose mission is to take photographs and whose architectural images have brought her an international reputation, and Alessandra Salaris, an Italian designer who elevates everything she touches to elegant heights. A fun “double interview” that compares the viewpoints of two women from different backgrounds – Danish and one Italian – who tell us what home means to them and their countries.

 

Perfect for them to share with us what it means to them to furnish a house and live in it, but especially the wealth of meaning behind those seemingly banal words “My home”.

line and alessandra, would you like to tell us what “my home” actually means?

 

ALESSANDRA: This is part of a much broader concept, which goes beyond living spaces. Compared to the past, we are able to enjoy many more experiences. We have more choices, we can travel relatively effortlessly and this freedom of expression has obviously seeped into our homemaking experience. At home I am free to do what I want. This sociological phenomenon is a consequence of the greater possibilities offered by our contemporary culture. In the past, everything was more rigid and set. For example, parents chose kitchens because it was an expensive purchase and needed to last a lifetime. They had more money than their children who had to put up with other people’s tastes. Today, various factors, including increased insecurity and economic instability, have led us to believe that we will not necessarily live in the same house for life. In two years you could end up working in Shanghai or who knows where. At this particular moment in history, Calligaris’ tactic of offering designer goods at an affordable price is undoubtedly a winning choice.

 

 

LINE: It’s different in Denmark. This is the period in which the house is considered both a refuge and a status symbol. People want to live in beautiful houses and are proud to show them to others. However, I think that furnishing a house is a matter of life. Your ideal home can’t be the bachelorette apartment you moved into at 20, it has to be one that’s full of familiar and beloved objects, a place that you connect with over time. Of course, I also like the unusual designer piece. In Denmark, we have a symbiotic relationship with design. My childhood home was full of familiar pieces of furniture, but at the time it was nothing out of the ordinary to have an Arne-Jacobsen chair. It was just an item. Its purpose was to be useful and comfortable. There was no showing off. Today, that has all changed. Everyone wants to outdo their neighbors with their modern furniture.
