Image: MDF Italia. Piergiorgio Cazzaniga’s (1946- ) designs always start with a sketch, informed by his hands on technical experience. The Sign is made from polyamide (nylon 6), rotationally moulded, and finished with gloss paint. The acrylic paint was sourced from the automobile industry and is resistant to scratching.
In 2017, the collection was renewed by MDF Italia with Sign Filo, Sign Baby and Sign Matt added to the original design. The Sign Filo is made from 45 meters of steel wire, outlining the shape of the original, Sign Baby is a child’s version of chair and Sign Matt features a matt finish available in five colours, made using a resilient polyethylene.
