BOLOGNA, 1959

Immediately after his studies in architecture in Florence at the university where several radical groups were born, Ghini founds the Bolidism movement in 1985; this explicitly refers to Italian Futurism, American streamlining, and pop culture.

Immediately after his studies in architecture in Florence at the university where several radical groups were born, Ghini founds the Bolidism movement in 1985; this explicitly refers to Italian Futurism, American streamlining, and pop culture.

Thanks to his visionary projects, he is immediately successful and designs a collection of Moroso furniture and the Bolidò discotheque in New York (1988).

Today the Iosa Ghini Associati firm has offices in Bologna and Milan. Not only does it work on products (for Cassina, Domodinamica, Flou, Frau, Snaidero, Teuco and many others) it also does interior and commercial design for major companies: Alitalia, Ferrari, IBM, Omnitel, Poste Italiane, and Superga.
