The Italian architects and designer brothers Achille Castiglioni (1918-2002) and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni (1913-1968) are among the greatest names of modern Italian design. Both studied architecture at the Politecnico di Milano (where they later worked as teachers) and their prolific output included many collaborations with major Italian manufacturers, such as Flos, Alessi, Kartell, Knoll and B&B Italia. Today, many of the brothers’ iconic designs are on display at museums and galleries around the world today, including the Vitra Design Museum in Germany, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, and the MoMA in New York.
