Description:
The project series consists of design work for an unidentified furniture design competition. Material in this project series was originally housed in a folder marked "Concorso Mobili anno 1968", and Poli mentions in his inventory that the project was in collaboration with Roberto Gherardi. The material in this series consists of drawings of a wide clock cabinet, each identified with the note "Motto autunno" (autumn theme). A similar theme is echoed in the caption of one of the photomontages: "Un mobile per tutte le stagioni" (furniture for all seasons). The photomontages feature this cabinet and other elements, such as a table, with photographic portraits of women and children. In his inventory, Poli notes that the photographs are of presentation panels, which were not received with the fonds. A number of items in this series are signed by Poli.

Description:
Project series comprises design and promotional material for a bed entitled "Il carro di giove" designed by Poli in 1991. The bed was made for F.lli Ciulli (likely Fratelli Ciulli), based in Florence, Italy, and an accompanying blanket was made for the textile design company Fanair. The bed project was featured in the 1991 publication Catalogo Armonia by publisher Ponte alla Grazie in Florence, as well as the April 1992 issue of Casa Vogue (no. 240). The design features a large alabaster disc suspended from an iron frame. Project material in the series ranges from early sketches to drawings and collages of the bed in various media, with some drawings overlayed with wax and silver paper. Also included are excerpted pages from the Catalogo Armonia, featuring a conversation with Sergio Cammilli, who commissioned furniture designs from architects and contemporary artists. The Catalogo Armonia pages also feature images of the bed and blanket prototype. This project series includes textile reference studies, though no drawings or designs for the bed's blanket were received from Poli.

Description:
Project series comprises material related to a design entry for a 1988 competition on the environmental redevelopment of the San Carlo quarry in the comune of Castelnuovo Berardenga near Siena, Italy. Poli dates this project as 1988, though most of the material is undated (only 2 drawings are dated 1988). However, the project description text includes a bibliography making reference to 1991 publications, though it is possible that this document was created later than the drawings. Project material includes numerous drawings and collages, some which are overlayed with wax, one which features a metal object, and some drawn directly onto topographical maps. Project material also includes a model, a photomontage featuring images of the quarry site and geological strata, and a typed project description. Parts of the text in the project description also appear on some of the drawings. Many of the drawings feature a circular design that is repeated throughout the drawing material in this series. Poli's proposal for the redevelopment seemed to involve the addition of trees to the area and the development of a passageway. One of Poli's drawings makes reference to the earth moon highway featured in an earlier project, Interplanetary Architecture (see AP148.S1.1970.PR02).
