The calendar of events surrounding the global launch of “MOLTENI MONDO: An Italian Design Story” stretch around the world, from New York to Ningbo. One of the highlights of this worldwide celebration marking the 90th anniversary of Molteni&C took place October 3, 2024, at the UniFor Showroom in Milan, where two contributors to the book, curator and historian Maria Cristina Didero and design author Francesca Picchi, presented the work in a conversation moderated by journalist Marco Ferrante.

“MOLTENI MONDO: An Italian Design Story” is published by Rizzoli New York, edited by Spencer Bailey with creative direction by Beda Achermann and photography by Jeff Burton. Taking a cinematic view of the company — its founding family, its 90 years of history, its collaborations with globally renowned designers and its expansive, prestigious archive — the book offers the first-ever chronicle of this seminal Italian company since its founding in 1934.

Featuring an introduction by Jean Nouvel and an afterword by Jacques Herzog, “MOLTENI MONDO” is an immersive reading experience from beginning to end. Created to shed light on the true nature of a company that has had an outsized impact on the culture of Italian design, the book offers an unembellished view behind the scenes of Molteni&C, enhanced by the sharing of stories from the design protagonists who shape its legacy.
