Joe Colombo (1930-1971) was one of the greatest designers of the 20th century: a multifaceted, visionary genius, capable of turning ideas into real objects that are still striking today for their modern flair. After an educational background at the Brera Academy and at the Politecnico of Milan, Joe Colombo began a prolific career and, in just a couple of decades, succeeded in expressing his innovative vision of the world.

His ingenious ideas led him to the creation of futuristic furnishings, legendary icons of Italian design: the Acrilica lamp, the Tube Chair, the Spider lamp, and the "multi-function mobile units," such as Minikitchen.

This book is the first catalogue raisonné devoted to his work, documenting over 200 designs with specific focus on the items that are still in production after fifty years.
