Maintenance
Cover
- For home washing of covers, follow the symbols on the technical sheet that came with the product.
- Periodically adjust the Velcro fasteners to remove folds and creases due to normal use of the product.
- If there are no Velcro fasteners, smooth the cover manually from the inside towards the outside.
- For ordinary cleaning, dust with a soft dry cotton cloth.
- If liquids should accidentally fall on the surface, remove them immediately and dry with paper towels.
- The surface can then be cleaned with a white cotton or microfibre cloth, slightly damp with water and neutral soap, and then dried in a well-ventilated place.
- In case of stains, act immediately to blot the stain with a clean white cloth and, if necessary, remove the dirt with a spoon or knife, using the flat part horizontally and being very careful to not ruin the cover.
- Dab the stain from the outer edges inward to avoid rings.
- All actions must be done with circular movements, without exerting excessive mechanical pressure.

Metal

Designer
Luigi Caccia Dominioni
Luigi Caccia Dominioni (1913 - 2016) was one of the main Italian architects and urbanists of the second post-war period, and one of the precursors and founders of Italian design. He was a brilliant interpreter of Milanese and Lombard tradition. He began his professional life right after getting his degree in 1936 from the Milan Polytechnic University, when he opened a studio in the Porta Nuova district with brothers Livio and Piergiacomo Castiglioni, and dedicated his time to interior architecture, design, industrial design, competitions and outfitting.
In particular, his work in industrial design placed him as a “pioneer” at the 7th Triennale in Milan with a series of radio units designed with the Castiglioni brothers. A reference point for contemporary designers, he explored the relationship between modernity and tradition during his career, providing a definite contribution to redefining the architecture of his home city, Milan, after the second World War. His most famous works in the city are the blocks of flats in Via Ippolito Nievo, the San Felice district and the redevelopment of Piazza San Babila.
As a designer, instead, his most famous work was the Catilina armchair produced in 1957. Luigi Caccia Dominioni won the prestigious Compasso d’Oro for important projects such as the Sedia T12 Palini and the Super door. He also received the Compasso d’Oro for his career and for his objective contribution to the very definition of Italian design and the originality of its content.
