Alias

The furniture company Alias came into existence in 1979 with the Spaghetti Chair, founded by Giandomenico Belotti in Grumello del Monte near Bergamo, Italy. This chair, in which the seat and backrest consisted of endless strings, was the first product of the company to be included in the collection of the MoMA in New York.

All of the furniture by Alias is characterized by minimalism. When designing the creations at Alias the current needs of customers in the home, workplace and outdoor area are always considered so that Alias can offer the perfect contemporary designer products.

The furniture and outdoor designs of the historic brand were created through close cooperation with many renowned creative people like Alberto Meda, Alfredo Häberli, Riccardo Blumer, Eugeni Quitllet, Dante Bonuccelli and Pio Manzù.

The designer Riccardo Blumer created, among other things, the legendary 304 Laleggera chair for Alias, which seems to be full of ease. The simple wooden chair was so successful that he won the Design Award of Switzerland in 1997 as well as the Compasso d'Oro a year later.

Through collaboration with designers Alberto Meda and Paolo Rizzatto in 2003 the attractive 496 Frametable by Alias was born. This elegant table can be used as a worktop, as well as a dining table and is guaranteed to steal the show from any other piece of furniture.

The stylish Tagliatelle Chair by Jasper Morrison had its debut at the Milan Furniture Fair in 2011. The liveable To'taime coat rack by Starck + Quillet, the modular Tec Table by Alfredo Häberli and the wonderfully comfortable Manzù armchair, which the world-famous designer Pio Manzù designed, were presented at the exhibition. A year later, in 2012, came the feminine Elle chair by Eugeni Quitllet.
