It’s that time of the year, and Solinfo has once again been feverishly preparing for the Advent period.
We celebrated our 30th birthday this year, and this also gave us the opportunity to review everything that has happened not just to us, but to all designers and artists in the recent period.
The world of design has not come to a halt in 2020 either. The way we worked has changed, and we certainly saw that – at times – things progressed more laboriously and slower. The year has taught us patience and persistence. We needed strength to continue onwards undeterred. We also needed designers to continuously keep creating. In many cases, these people are close personal friends and business partners. We mutually supported and gave strength to one another, and it was always an occasion to celebrate when they came out with a new collection, work of art or an innovative piece. This is why we gathered these up and are now presenting them to you over the course of 24 days, so that others like us, lovers of design, may look ahead to Christmas believing that 2020 was again an extraordinary year.

2020 again saw great and wonderful things created, and the global pandemic will not be the only thing that we’ll remember 2020 for.

A labour of love, we hope you like our selection presenting the most recent works and favourite pieces by designers we hold dear over 24 days.

This is the Solinfo Designer Guide.

“In an era like ours with a swift technological leap, we need to have objects that remind us that time actually flows a little slower. A lamp designed in the fifties that you like and feels good in your home gives a sense of peace.” – Alessandro Sarfatti

The biggest thing from Alessandro Sarfatti this year: Astep Pepa lamp

The most impressive work from Alessandro Sarfatti’s Astep this year was the Pepa lamp designed by Francesco Faccin. The Pepa is a portable table lamp with a wholly unique body of solid wood.
A portable luminaire that marries traditional craft with modern technology.

The choice of Solinfo’s experts: Model 537

A veritable classic as designed by Gino Sarfatti, the Model 537 is an exquisite table lamp that displays the virtuosity of its designer. Sarfatti created Model 537 around 1950, and it is now reintroduced by Astep as part of the Flos with Sarfatti collection.
