Quality, ethics and passion: Saba was born in 1988 and since then has dedicated its design research to the culture of relaxation. Creation, choice of materials, manufacturing and construction processes follow an ideal path guided by the desire to experiment without inclination towards excess and with constant attention to the principles of quality and ergonomics. For Saba, a design product must not only have excellent characteristics from a technical point of view but must also respond to the real needs of the consumer and at the same time raise aesthetic emotions to excite the public.
Technological innovation: for Saba, quality is a matter of accuracy, measurement and detail, which is why we use extremely high precision machinery that guarantees the optimization and control of all production phases. the experience of the artisan workforce remains fundamental.
Selection of quality materials: the choice of excellent materials is the basis of every new project. What characterizes Saba is the unmistakable style of combining every shape with the poetry of color and the material of the fabric. Each collection has its own design nature, which allows the shapes of the model to be adapted to ergonomic needs.
Design Enzo Berti
Born in Venice in 1950, he has always shown an interest in the arts in general, developing as he grew up a strong aptitude for artistic studies. The passion for shape and color is expressed and consolidated through the studies conducted under the prestigious guidance of Alberto Viani at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. The contact and teaching with the undisputed "masters" of the decorative arts contributed in those years to outlining the eclectic personality of the designer who created interesting projects and objects exhibited in decorative art exhibitions organized in various European countries. In the following years he revealed himself as a designer endowed with notable creative abilities and a strong aesthetic sense: the projects are never the banal fruit of a technical intuition but rather the perfect synthesis between form, functionality, industrialization and exaltation of the expressive capabilities of the material of which the project is composed. For this reason the artistic-creative process is not an end in itself, but has as its fundamental field of application the conception and creation of objects of common use. The search for simplification and at the same time the choice and definition of detail define the dictates of his way of designing.Viganò to get to know different realities and ways of working , acquiring more and more experience over time. The overview of the projects developed is also completed by communication graphics products such as the creation of catalogues, brochures, invitations and advertising pages that follow, under the supervision of Giuseppe Viganò, starting from photography up to the layouts.
