Design Week 2024 – La Biblioteca di don Ferrante

Also for 2024, Haute Material will experience the Design Week, opening up to visitors of the Fuorisalone in the suggestive square of Torre Gorani and presenting Don Ferrante’s Library, a rich catalog of materials from which our works originate.

The Don Ferrante Library contained perhaps three hundred books: the most important – Manzoni ironically – for an intellectual of his era, the 17th century.
Our Library is – obviously – imaginary, but it contains real samples of tree essences in book form.
Don Ferrante, with his “words”, with his readings, imagined himself happy in his world (but we know how it ended): with these “woods”, chosen with care and passion, high quality and design. We build a better world.

Built in brushed and painted cedar; it can be disassembled and can travel.

Concept: Gerardo Monizza
Collaboration: Antonio Citterio
Production: Haute Material
Coordination: NodoLibri

From 16th to 21st April our showroom will be open to the public from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., both to freely visit our material library on the ground floor and the modular space set up on the first floor.

Architects, interior designers and professionals in the sector can also make dedicated appointments by writing to showroom@hautematerial.com.


The entrance to the Haute Material showroom is located within the new area of Torre Gorani, with entrance from Piazza Tomasi di Lampedusa (-> Google Maps) – behind of Corso Magenta – to be accessed from via Brisa or from via Gorani: it can also be easily reached on foot from the Cairoli (M1), Cordusio (M1) or Cadorna (M1, M2) stops.
