Flexform entered the world of products made and designed in italy just when the extraordinarily innovative cultural era of "italian design" was dawning. It did so in 1970 with a collection of items created by such great names as joe colombo, cini boeri, sergio asti, and rodolfo bonetto. Flexform has grown since then, expanding into a complex family-run group of enormous creative talent, establishing a hallmark style which can be seen in its products and in its approach to research and business. The inventive design work of architect antonio citterio led not only to collections of small armchairs and accessories but also to a range of large sofas – warm islands of comfort consisting of variously sized modular elements that radically changed the concept of socializing and inhabiting a space. There are now many famous collections – long island, groundpiece, status, resort – in showrooms right round the world. alongside today's collections, moka has a place of its own. these furniture units were designed in the 1930s by mario asnago and claudio vender, the great masters of italian rationalism. The graphic design and image created by natalia corbetta combine to form a precisely structured communication identity that reflects the spirit of flexform.
