Lardini is thrilled to announce the launch of The Code of Making, a captivating film that pays homage to the brand's distinctive manufacturing heritage, which coincides with the debut of its beautifully redesigned website. These two interconnected projects weave a singular narrative: the harmonious amalgamation of family legacy, artisanal craftsmanship, and technological innovation, all reimagined through a modern lens of style.
Blinds are never the thing you notice. But window covers designed to block out the sun have been around for millennia. In ancient Egypt, people hung up wet strips of fabric; in Iran they developed horizontal wooden slats to obstruct light, later termed "Venetian" when they arrived in Italy on trade ships. By the mid 20th century, the humble blind was yet another subject ripe for innovation as manufacturing techniques evolved.
