Shangai is a system of sofas with rigorous shapes, available in two versions of padding – the first more classic and the second, in feather, softer and more informal. The aluminium base, which looks like a thin line, is a detail with a contemporary touch.
Carlo Colombo was born in 1967 in Carimate in the province of Como. He graduated in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic in 1993 under his thesis advisor Achille Castiglioni. Colombo inherited his sense of material and proportions from his family's carpentry shop. As a student, he designed the Kyoto bed, which, after attracting the interest of Giulio Cappellini, was presented at the Milan Furniture Fair in 1992. This marked the beginning of a career focused on various scales - from product design to architecture, graphics, interior design, general contracting and communications. He has collaborated with many prestigious brands, including Cappellini, which produced the Cap Ferrat armchair, the Cap Martin Sunset coffee table, the Zigo Zago rug and the Hot Palm Springs sofa with a removable cover. His encounter with Giorgetti led to the creation of the Shirley bench and mirror, the Adam bed, the modular Domus bookcases, the Ago oval table, the Charlotte walnut sideboard and sideboard, the Town modular wardrobe and TV cabinet, the Frame wood valet stand, Aldìa furniture (tables, sofas, armchairs and garden tables), the Ago and Vittoria sofas, the Skyline sideboard and sofas, and the Adam dormeuse.
