Antonio Monaci

“My mother’s sister, Doris Lehni-Quarella, was a tremendous influential figure in my life. I am very grateful for her support, and I was able to accept the inheritance of Lehni with my own vision. It is important to me not only to manufacture furnishings for the sake of it, but to design products that were developed as the result of a cultural exchange.”

Born 1972 in Florence, studied art and architecture in Florence, realised several architectural projects, developed furniture and design objects. Proprietor of Lehni AG since 1998. As an architect, he deals with questions of design and fosters ties between the art scene and Lehni enterprise, just like his aunt Doris Quarella, who had initiated those relationships.
