Bontempi expresses a vision of design founded on balance, functionality and design quality. For over 60 years, since 1963, when brothers Alessandro and Giancarlo founded a metalworking workshop in Camerano, the brand has been creating furniture that is born in Italy and accompanies everyday living with elegance, comfort and attention to detail. A solid manufacturing culture, carefully selected materials and advanced technologies guide every project, shaping products designed to stand the test of time and blend naturally into contemporary spaces: this is why Bontempi is today a benchmark for Made in Italy design furniture.

The Bontempi catalog covers living and sleeping areas with chairs, fixed and extendable tables, modern sideboards and designer beds, alongside modular bookcases, coffee tables, mirrors and poufs. A versatile stylistic language allows each piece to adapt to residential and contract settings, with the option to customise materials, dimensions and finishes.

The quality of the design is confirmed by its awards: in 1987 the Delfina chair received the Compasso d'Oro, while in 2024 the Doris armchair won the Red Dot Design Award.

From generational transition to international growth

In 2010 the company underwent an important generational transition: Michele, Massimiliano, Laura and Annalisa took on the founders' legacy, renewing the catalogs and communication and introducing digital tools such as the online configurator. This choice strengthened the relationship with architects and designers, making the brand even more contemporary. With its entry into the Colombini Group in 2021, Bontempi consolidated its international expansion. Today the brand is present with dedicated showrooms and a network of qualified retailers in Italy and abroad, including a prominent showroom in Rome.

Collections and iconic products

Among its most recognisable creations are the Delfina chair, an icon of timeless elegance, and the Doris armchair, a synthesis of comfort and minimalism. Over time, Bontempi has created pieces that have become true design icons and best represent the brand's style and philosophy:

Kaleido table: majestic and sculptural, it stands out for its triangular base, which recalls the symmetries of a kaleidoscope. The top, customisable in shape and size, blends art and architecture in a striking design.
Bach table: available in a rectangular or barrel-shaped version, fixed or extendable, it combines a lacquered steel frame with a top in premium materials such as wood, glass, SuperCeramica and SuperMarmo.
Victor sofa: clean lines and bespoke modularity define its contemporary silhouette, which adapts to any space, while optional armrests add lightness and movement.
Amelie chairs: with tapered legs and an upholstered shell, they offer tailored comfort and a refined aesthetic. Upholstery options range from technical fabrics to selected leathers.
Doris armchair: compact, swivelling and enveloping, it is designed to enhance living rooms, bedrooms and public spaces. Its minimalist design invites relaxation.
Olympia sideboard: a celebration of contemporary design, with doors in SuperCeramica or SuperMarmo. Luminous textures and refined finishes make it a sophisticated furnishing piece.
