Umberto Asnago

Umberto Asnago obtained his diploma at the Istituto d’Arte in Cantù and soon after, in 1968, started his experience as a designer with the furniture brand Giorgetti SpA, where he later took charge of its Research Centre.

In 2006 Asnago left Giorgetti to start his career as a designer in earnest. In 2011 he designed a collection for Giorgetti, thus returning as designer, and now he designs for furniture companies like Arflex, Besana, Busnelli, Ivano Redaelli and Mobilidea. These collaborations have established Umberto Asnago as a personality and professional who is technically adroit and able to rapidly adapt to the many evolutions of the furniture market. Today he is Art Director and Designer of Penta Illuminazione (Penta Lights).
