And you, are you more of a giver or a receiver?

From imposition to fun. Because it is not the same to give a special gift to someone you know and admire, than to that distant relative you see from Christmas to Christmas with your only relation being a distant memory... Because of this, for this holiday season at #diabla we want to go a step further: imagining the reaction of some of our masters, idols, and icons to some of our favourite designs. What would their response be? It's time to imagine.

Achille Castiglioni: a little something for a curious mind

What could you give the privileged author of more than 300 industrial #design projects and almost 200 architectural projects? Achille Castiglioni has been able to do it all from such an original and surprising perspective that Italian #design would not be understood without him. But at #diabla we think we have the answer.

Because Alejandra Gandía-Blasco was inspired by the master's teachings to create the PATOSO pouf and reflect on the functionality of everyday objects that surround us to give them a twist.

For Lilly Reich, no anonymity

Without Lilly Reich it would be impossible to understand industrial #design today, in a female key: it is not in vain that the first director of the Deutscher Werkbund and one of the few female Bauhaus teachers was also the first protagonist of a monographic exhibition at the MoMA in New York.

There is no doubt that she too deserves a tribute from us. One with her name in capital letters: the LILLY armchair.

For the environmentally conscious Eunice Newton Foote

The American researcher born at the turn of the 19th century was the pioneer in the discovery of the greenhouse effect and its consequences for global warming. And for this, we think she deserves a gift: the BALCONI table and chair by Oiko #design, a Barcelona-based studio that focuses on the circularity of materials to reduce environmental impact.

The surfaces of BALCONI are made of post-consumer plastic (from recycled packaging), while the structures are made of thermo-lacquered aluminium tubes with high-quality, super-durable powder paint that is resistant to outdoor use.
