Do you know Willy Rizzo?


We only just discovered him. During our move (which is why we've been away for a while), we came across a coffee table designed by Willy Rizzo and fell completely in love with it. Before buying it, we looked him up and saw all the great work that he'd done. Starting as a photographer in the sixties, when he photographed so many interesting people, he then went on to design the coolest furniture in the seventies, eventually returning to photography. His furniture designs really sum up the coolness of an era. We now have a very slick coffee table in black edged with brass, which opens up into a drinks cabinet!
