Zeus

Blacksmith - Lombardia, Italy

Zeus was founded in 1984 by a group of friends who wanted to share their experiences in the fields of design, fashion and art. Under the brand with the ambitious name of Zeus, they aimed to deliberately “contaminate” each other’s ideas, merging them into a unique and recognizable style. Today, Zeus has blossomed into a self-produced and designed furniture collection with worldwide distribution. A melding of poor and precious materials characterizes our style, where the strength of metals such as stainless steel and iron are paired with living materials such as wood and wax.

Attention to materials and their life cycle guides our production, which has an industrial approach but a strong artisanal character.

ZEUS was founded in 1984 by a group of friends with the desire and pleasure of exchanging experiences in the fields of design, fashion and art, with the aim of sharing their ideas, contaminating each other. They chose the nameZEUS, the divinity per excellence, deliberately with a bit of arrogance. A group of young designers who recognised themselves in a design philosophy of synthesis: the ZEUS group used to propose minimalist, black, chic furniture.
In 1985 ZEUS presented thefirst design collection by Maurizio Peregalli in its own showroom with the 'archetype' products: Chair-Table-Armchair-Savonarola-Bench-Stool. It was the first time, with all due exceptions, that a young company exhibited during the Salone del Mobile in its own showroom, initiating the Fuorisalone, an appointment then consolidated over the years.
This first collection is still in production, a sign of an iconic design that is unconstrained by current trends. The ZEUS catalogue has expanded over time, while maintaining the core principles of the beginnings, to offer timeless minimal products, entirely handmade by Italian craftsmen. Welding, bending and surface treatment, each technique is carried out with special care to maintain high quality standards. Industrial- style materials, such as metal, and artistic handmade finishes are preferred, deliberately irregular, unpredictable, enhancing the raw material used: each table, chair or complement thus becomes a unique and precious piece.
