Tobia Scarpa

Tobia Scarpa is one of the most important Italian designers and architects. His figure is often associated with that of his colleague and wife Afra Bianchin, an architect and designer herself. Following in the footsteps of his father Carlo, Tobia Scarpa has made great design masterpieces that have become globally renowned. It suffices to think of the iconic Soriana sofa by Cassina, designed in collaboration with his wife, or of the Foglio wall lamp by Flos and the Pigreco chair by Tacchini.

In terms of architecture, he has carried out important projects for villas, buildings and manufacturing sites.
