Piero Lissoni (Seregno 1956) graduated in architecture in Milan in 1985. In 1986 he opened his industrial design, interior architecture and graphic design studio. He has worked for many Italian design houses, not only in the field of product design but also of coordinated image, communication campaigns and the creation of show rooms. He has recently branched out into architecture, with numerous projects for private homes and hotels in Italy and abroad, for example in Venice (Monaco & Grand Canal), Zurich (Al Porto), Istanbul (Bentley design hotel) and Bangkok.

retro flavor, but with disadvatages When I purchased the soap dish, I thought the base was stainless steel, as well as the top grill, but it was actually a high-polished (seems aluminum do to weight) grill and a white plastic base; a tad misleading from the photo and description. These characteristics are slightly less alluring, but I still enjoyed the shape. The functionality on the other hand is a bit problematic; the grill isn't fixed in place--which is helpful for cleaning out the dirty water, but when the soap dries on there it becomes affixed to the grill and you end up picking both up when you grab the soap in the morning. It's a bit obnoxious in the morning when you've got a routine going. Piero Lissoni, if you're listening, try and affix the grill somehow to the soap dish: a snapping mechanism, or a hinge of some-sort, even a latch might work. |
