Bruno Gatta (1904 — 1976)
Bruno Gatta founded Stilnovo in 1946 in Lainate, a city part of the industrial suburbs of Milano. Stilnovo is lead by a market logic unlike Arredoluce or O’Luce which, despite his small size, adopts an industrial logic from 1952-1955.
From then until the 1980s, Stilnovo produced some of the most imaginative and striking lighting fixtures of its time, revolutionary both in its use of material and in its shapes.
