Summary:
Renata Bonfanti is one of the most important Italian textile designers. After an epistolary relationship with Bonfanti, the author of the book goes to Bassano del Grappa to meet her personally and develop a photographic project inspired by her work. Created as a story in words and images, it concerns Bonfanti's studies, her working relationships with other personalities of Italian design, her friendships and people dear to her, her house interwoven with memories, the extraordinary laboratory in Mussolente. Domitilla Dardi writes in the introductory essay: “For her, weaving is not an embellishment of architecture or furniture, but a material for the construction of spaces, a complementary element to structures. It is no coincidence that her works will be in dialogue with interiors designed by Mangiarotti, Frattini, Ponti, as integral parts of those design visions."
