About the Maker: BBPR was an Italian architectural collective founded in Milan in 1932 by Gian Luigi Banfi, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, Enrico Peressutti, and Ernesto Nathan Rogers. The group was active across architecture, urban planning, and design, contributing to the development of postwar Italian modernism. Their collaboration with Arteluce extended their architectural approach into lighting, with an emphasis on structure, repetition, and modular systems.
