Notes on Interior Design: Decorators and designers are creative and talented people. Their craft takes a blend of hard work, insight and passion. To excel and become one of the best though, the ones the rest of us look to for inspiration, involves a quantum leap beyond arranging furniture and co-ordinating colours. It takes the mental discipline of an athlete to bring together the disciplines of art, science, marketing, sociology and psychology to get positive results. Interiors can look many different ways, but how they work is more important. Designing environments that satisfy your needs requires understanding of your space's current and future uses. Interior design consultants are trained to deal with more than the furnishings and finishes that go into making a space look wonderful. They use analytical problem-solving skills that focus on your needs and aspirations. Designers listen, understand and ultimately create a space that exceeds your expectations.

Designers act as consultants to ensure you get what you want and need. They'll help you examine your options, create a roadmap, manage the process or anything in between - purchasing, ordering, supervising contractors and overseeing budgets. Interior design consultants are trained to see the big picture and to help you balance your aspirations, functional needs and meeting budgets.

Many icons of modern furniture design have become so common place and ordinary to us that now we take them for granted. Have you ever sat on bean bag and wondered who invented it? Who ever came up with the idea of making a table out of glass? The high tech furniture we see in today's offices or in some of the trendiest bars and restaurants in town, have all been the brain child of some of Italy's leading designers and architects.

Post war Boom
To discover how Italian Contemporary Design developed into what it is today, we need to go back to years after the war. Before World War II, Italy had made little or no contribution to industrialized consumer products.
The Post war boom in the economy changed all that, creating an environment in which design could flourish.

Investing in design was not only the prerogative of the big Italian industrialists. There were also many small family-based operations who were willing to take risks with innovative designs. Young Architects, often unable to find work on big projects, were often enlisted to work with these manufacturers on small-scale design projects. They were hired not just as draughtsmen, a cog in the wheel of industrial production but were the first design professionals who controlled directly what they designed from start to finish.

Many of their "industrial creations" have become design icons and can be admired today in museums of modern art. It is not by chance then, that with Italy's industrial expansion, a new style of office furniture and home furniture evolved , symbols of the new industrial economy - steel, chrome, plastic and fibreglass.

Another important factor was the role of the individual designer. Before the 1950s, artists and architects dabbled in making furniture or objects as an expression of their own creativity. These artist-designers were often eccentric loners who did not have the support of a manufacturing industry to put their ideas into production and deliver them to the masses.

The combination of industry with creativity and innovation was the spark that set alight the whole of contemporary design production in Italy and it is a system which works today.

The Anti-Design Movement
A movement that is often called the Anti-Design Movement (1965-1976) was essentially a rebellion against the interdisciplinary theories of modernism and German functionalism. The Pop-cultures and Anti-cultures were emerging and the market focused on this new, youthful energy. With new upholstery techniques there was a revolution in the manufacture of padded sofas, pouffes and easy chairs. The introduction of PVC in the mid 1960s was particularly suited to the Pop Culture. With PVC new inflatable chairs, sofas, pillows appeared, even tables and lighting. They were a now a medium of sculpture. Legendary designer Gaetano Pesce's "UP" sofa in 1969 and his "Donna " chair symbolising femminity in 1968 were in themselves works of art. They also happened to be functional and comfortable to sit on!

1990-2003
There are no longer national boundaries between designers so clearly cut as in the past. Italian designers work in the United States and other countries and designers from other countries work with Italian manufacturers.
