luca and his household icons
- dedicated to making your house a home!
you may ask why there is a need for the design of pre-existing
objects. people like to change and manufacturers need to dream
up new product lines to stay in business.
to redesign an object is a history lesson.
you examine the objects past, and listen to the hidden or forgotten
needs and desires that are there.
luca trazzi has the know-how in the field of household appliance.
his creations have very positive market responsesbecause he
focuses to customer oriented design and object oriented
development.
