PAOLO CASTELLI SPA was founded upon the historic tradition of the Castelli family, the roots of whose activity in the field of fine woodworking first and office furniture later date back to the beginning of the last century. Born more than 20 years ago of the subsequent transformations of the company is Domodinamica, a collection that vaunts numerous icons that have changed the history of design and prestigious creations by famous designers, hosted in the great museums of the world. After years of success and acclaim on the international design scene comes Inspiration, a furniture collection ‘inspired’ by the interior design sensibilities of architects working in London and Paris during the 1930s-‘50s, revisited in a contemporary key. With great attention to detail and to the new lifestyles of an international clientele with sophisticated tastes, Inspiration is a collection that offers a range of possibilities for personalization, to the extent that every object in it can become a one-of-a-kind piece in terms of dimensions and finish, thanks to the meticulous craftsmanship of the finest Italian artisans who build them. Over the course of these many decades in the field of design, the company has developed and consolidated extensive experience in the world of contract services and as a main contractor. In realizing projects by outside architects or by its own excellent team of architects, engineers, technicians and graphic designers, PAOLO CASTELLI SPA can operate on both small and large scales in both private and public contexts, providing restructuring and renovation services and custom furnishings for libraries, airports, hotels, museums, private homes, auditoriums, offices and ships.
