Contemporary furniture manufacturer Mattiazzi was founded in Italy in 1978 by brothers Nevio and Fabiano Mattiazzi.
Using sophisticated CNC tools to shape wood into the complex shapes associated with injection-moulded plastic, Mattiazzi disproves the belief that mechanised manufacturing is not a craft. Its specialised craftsmen use some of the most sophisticated machinery available to the wood industry.

The company works with leading designers such as Studio Nitzan Cohen, Sam Hecht of Industrial Facility and the Bouroullec brothers, making the most of close collaborations to create beautiful, refined pieces.

Sam Hecht’s design for the Branca chair is one example.
“We understood early on, this design was something special that could not be rushed through a formal process,” says Mattiazzi’s Cristina Salvati of the chair, which was inspired by the wooden branches of a tree.

“We took our time in the development with Sam to refine every detail and dimension. Solid wood is warm and feels familiar; the design should communicate this to the senses.”
The Mattiazzi range, including the Branca chair and table by Sam Hecht, He Said She Said chairs and tables by Studio Nitzan Cohen and Osso chair by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, is now available from Herman Miller dealers.
