Designer
Antonia Astori
Antonia Astori a fondé Driade en 1968 avec son frère Enrico et Adelaide Acerbi.
En plus de concevoir des meubles, elle a joué le rôle de coordonnatrice de projet, apprenant à construire un réseau unique de conception de meubles, d'expositions et de magasins.
Elle a conçu les systèmes de confinement précurseurs Oikos I, Oikos II et Pantos. À ces systèmes, Antonia Astori combine la conception de pièces individuelles dans lesquelles le sens de la vie est toujours au cœur.
Dans cet esprit, elle a conçu Aforismi, la collection San Souci et, plus tard, le bureau Virginia et la bibliothèque Eileen.
