The Alessi company was founded by Giovanni Alessi in 1921 in the foothills of Alps. The year 2006 has seen a significant change: all Alessi products have been reclassified into the three brands - Officina Alessi, Alessi and A di Alessi.

Alessi's aim is to give life to new objects characterised by that mix of eccentricity and style, playfulness and culture, irony and elegance which has become synonymous with Alessi name.

Some of the historic designers of the company include: Aldo Rosi, Philippe Starck, Ron Arad, Jasper Morrison, Zaha Hadid etc.
