La Palma
HISTORY
For more than 20 years lapalma (established in 1978) has been manufacturing furniture for the modern home and for the contract, following a thread, rooted in the modern design, that links with clear proportions all the components of the project and aims at getting a universal product, that will last forever. Rational aesthetics, through the use of natural materials like wood from controlled plantation , leather, metal, wicker and glass, finds out an order in the variety of elements and functions. It is then possible to get a contact with things of everyday life, to live each moment and situation enjoying also small details, apparently meaningless, surrounded by objects that create a peaceful atmosphere. A style that creates a refined and functional room. All the products derive from a continual research on materials and mechanisms: these are engineered and developed in the plant of Cadoneghe, near Padova.
The most recent awards like the English FX INTERNATIONAL INTERIOR DESIGN AWARDS (Interior Design Product of the year 2000) and Japanese GOOD DESIGN AWARD (2001) points out the international attitude of lapalma's products. lapalma is member of ASSARREDO, CATAS (Italian laboratory for testing furniture and wood based products) and regularly exhibits at the Milan fair, International Möbelmesse (Cologne) and Orgatec (Cologne).
