Brands PAOLO CASTELLI

PAOLO CASTELLI S.p.A., before being a company, represents the history of a family and a tradition began in the years immediately after Italian unity towards the end of the nineteenth century. In 1887, Ettore Castelli decided to open a cabinetry shop in Bologna, introducing not only a workshop, but a specific “know-how” that has been lasting for over a century.

PAOLO CASTELLI S.p.A. is an Italian company, leader in the global contracting and in the design sector, in Italy and abroad, that manages large turnkey private and public projects, including bespoke furnishings for hospitality, high-end residential projects, offices, museums, marine. The company also produces furnitur and lighting for its own registered brands: Inspiration and Greenkiss.

INSPIRATION: Exceptional furnishings and complements, the result of unprecedented creative solutions in which an aesthetic of elegant essentialities is interpreted through the culture and ethos of multifaceted and complex research: a journey in the innovation of hospitality and the dream of living space.

Heritage: The collection is “inspired” by theeclectic design taste within the thirties and the fifties of the last century.

Tailor made: Created by the excellence of italian craftmanship with great attention to details.

TIimeless elegance: Furnishings interpreted to give a realistic vision of the evolution of a style of international elegance.

GREENKISS: 30 eco-responsible products which express not only the importance of the functional and aesthetic aspects of furnishings but also emphasise the value and charm of the way in which ethical design becomes the driving force behind a renewed sense of positivity and empathy towards the environment as a “resource”. The collection comprises tables, armchairs, seats and light fittings, and reflects the finest Italian and French design of the Fifties and Seventies. An ethical collection resulting from the creative talents of designers Hubert de Malherbe and Thierry Lemaire, combined with the savoir-faire of Paolo Castelli. What are the limits of elegance when using surprising new materials, moulded into the purest forms? We leave it up to you to judge.

Born of a long family tradition of 140 years in the field of furniture and contract supplies, the company has been able over the years to take advantage of market changes – between craft and industry – becoming a dynamic and flexible institution, capable of demolishing a building, rebuild it and providing furnishings, with the logic of the “global value engineering”, for a proper turnkey service.

PAOLO CASTELLI S.p.A. can indeed count on a network of artisans of trust and flair of engineers and designers, who recognize the company as a reliable partner. The ability to work on complex projects and products without losing the artisan soul of production, the high quality and attention to details are key factors that have enabled the company to continue growing in Italy and abroad and become one of the highest expressions of the Made in Italy.
