Luca Meda was a key figure in Italian industrial design and architecture between the 1960s and 1990s. Blending vibrant objects with melancholic architecture, domestic landscapes with urban interiors, he gracefully leapt across the boundaries between art, industrial design, and architecture.

Luca Meda was a key figure in Italian industrial design and architecture between the 1960s and 1990s. Blending vibrant objects with melancholic architecture, domestic landscapes with urban interiors, he gracefully leapt across the boundaries between art, industrial design, and architecture. Both a skilled designer and an inventive artist, he successfully wove together the world of industrial production with that of figurative art. His projects beautifully illustrate the profound bond between entrepreneurial culture and the creative force of its artisans, architects, and artists.

This volume is the first monographic publication dedicated to him. For the first time, it offers a comprehensive critical analysis of all the different aspects of his work, an in-depth biography, and a complete, annotated catalogue of his creations.

Silvana Editoriale was founded in 1948 by Amilcare Pizzi, as a way of remembering his daughter Silvana, who died prematurely in 1944. Through his commitment and passion, Pizzi expanded its business by publishing books of enormous value. In the mid-90s, Silvana redefined its publishing strategy, embarking on a path of growth and development on the national and international markets, focused on the fields of art, design, architecture and photography, all of which is documented in the on-site catalogue. Today, Silvana Editoriale publishes more than 400 titles a year in collaboration with Foundations, Research Institutes, Universities and Museums across Europe, the United States and the Middle East.
