In 1974, Italian designer Enzo Mari created his manual "Autoprogrettazione", a guide to a groundbreaking furniture collection that anyone could assemble themselves using simple materials such as wood, hammers, and nails. This work marked a milestone in design history by offering an alternative to mass-produced furniture and democratising good design. In our workshop, you will explore the world of designer Enzo Mari, who passed away in 2020, and gain insight into his life, philosophy, and innovative ideas.

With expert guidance, you will build your own Sedia Uno, one of Enzo Mari's most iconic designs. Step by step, you will assemble the individual parts and experience first-hand how a unique piece of furniture is created from simple materials. This workshop is not only a tribute to one of the great masters of design but also an opportunity to discover and develop your craftsmanship skills.

Whether you are a design enthusiast or simply looking to try something new, this workshop offers a chance to be creative and hands-on while learning about sustainable design.
