Tollgard & Castellani
Led by Product Design Director Filippo Castellani, Tollgard Product Design Studio includes lights for Contardi, an award-winning collection of rugs for JAB, headboards for VI-Spring and a growing collection of products for Porada and Gallotti & Radice. Product design has allowed them to tell the story of the piece instead of the story of the space. The direct, focused narrative of each piece offers an answer to a question of living that the interior design journey has uncovered.
Founder Staffan Tollgård was born and raised in Stockholm. He uses his earlier career in film-making as inspiration, manifesting his passion for story-telling through his interior design projects as well as product design ventures. Staffan’s design ethos is crystallised in two principles: the search for the Scandinavian notion of the distinctive ‘red thread’, or creative DNA, in each project, and the commitment to the creation of functional sculpture.
Filippo Castellani was born in Pisa, educated in Florence and trained in Milan. Creative consultant and product designer for leading international design brands, his experience has seen him work from high-end and limited production items, to mass-produced and globally retailed products. Informal – balanced – unconventional – figured – detailed… these are the keys to his concept of design.
