Driade
Italian furniture brand Driade offers modern designs that are joyful, whimsical and slightly mischievous — words that might be used to describe the tree nymph of Greek mythology for which the company is named. Faye Toogood’s chunky, stout Roly Poly armchair and Fabio Novembre’s enigmatic Nemo chair — in which a backrest assumes the form of a human face — are just two examples of Driade’s eclectic furnishings.
Driade was founded in 1968 by brother and sister Enrico and Antonia Astori, and Adelaide Acerbi Astori, Enrico’s wife. Described by the company as a “factory of art,” Driade was focused solely on bringing distinctive and creative seating, case pieces and decorative objects to market in its early years. The brand sought to mass-produce decor and furniture that could also be seen as provocative works of art.
Driade's initial collaborations included Italian designers such as Enzo Mari, Nanda Vigo, Giotto Stoppino and Rodolfo Bonetto, to name a few. In the 1980s, the brand worked with influential and renowned designers from around the globe. In 1984, Driade partnered with French designer Philippe Starck and debuted his iconic Costes armchair during the same year. Projects with architects and furniture designers such as Ron Arad, Toyo Ito, Borek Sipek, Patricia Urquiola and others followed into the 2000s.
Over more than five decades — the company celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2018 — Driade’s fruitful partnerships have culminated in a vast catalog of chairs, sofas, coffee tables and other furnishings for the home and garden that evoke a unique and diverse blend of cultures.
Driade has also garnered international acclaim, winning the Compasso d’Oro award in 1979 and 2001 for Enzo Mari’s Delfira chair and ebony-finished, chipboard-top table, and again in 2008 for Ron Arad’s MT3 rocking armchair.

- Gabetti & Isola Console Table in Black Lacquered Metal and Granite by Arbo 1970sBy Roberto Gabetti and Aimaro Isola, ArboLocated in Montecatini Terme, ITConsole table with a base in black lacquered metal and an ovoidal table top in granite, originally designed by Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola and Roberto Gabetti for the residential center Talponia based in Ivrea, and manufactured by Arbo during the 1970s. The activity of the studio of Roberto Gabetti (1925 - 2000) and Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola (1928) began in the fifties of the twentieth century. The Stock Exchange building, built in collaboration with Giorgio and Giuseppe Raineri in 1953, represents the first evidence of the design and layout of each individual part of the building, including furniture and fixed furnishings. The chairs, desks and sofas designed for the Stock Exchange are made by small Turin workshops (in particular the Colli di Torino furniture factory), with wood turned into organic shapes or veneered and polished and connected by open metal parts with a stiffening function, with extraordinary attention to detail. The chair with a "vertebrae" structure, in particular, conceived in 1952 in blackened beech wood, has two visible metal leaf springs...Category

- Ziqqurat Cabinet L Floral and Walnut by DriadeBy DriadeLocated in Beverly Hills, CAWhat could the design of a storage cabinet be like today? This is the question DriadeLab, Driade’s observatory on contemporary lifestyles, asked itself when it started to research into this project. The result was Ziqqurat:a cabinet made up of different boxes that can be piled up to create everchanging forms. This system, constructive in all respects, can be used to create arrangements of three different sizes depending on the space available.The project’s source of inspiration, ancient sumerian pyramids, is no random choice: it is such a strong theme that it even gave its name to the cabinet. In 2020 Driade, the aesthetic laboratory par excellence, proposed an expansion of the Ziqqurat collection in the iconic patterns: romantic in the floral version with tassels or pop in the white and black geometric version with black handle. The collection is therefore enriched with new 'must have' pieces that are added to the three-heighted modular container and to the vertical one: small cabinet and extra small...Category
