Franco Buzzi Biography

Franco Buzzi (1912 - ?) was an Italian architect, furniture and lighting designer. Buzzi is particularly known for his post-war lighting designs and his collaboration with fellow Italian designer Giuseppe Ostuni. Born in 1912 in Milan, Buzzi studied at the Milan Polytechnic. After graduating in 1937, he worked as an architect and interior designer in Milan. In a short time, Buzzi's interiors, with its warm and soft tones, were highly appreciated. Furthermore, from 1939 to 1942, Buzzi was appointed Associate Professor of Interior Design at the Polytechnic University of Milan. A few years after the war, in 1949, Buzzi opened an architecture studio in the Brera district of Milan, a popular neighborhood of artists and intellectuals. Here he met Giuseppe Ostuni with whom he became friends and Buzzi soon began creating his first lamps for the Ostuni company 'O-LUCE', founded in 1945 and today the oldest Italian design studio. One of the first models is the ´Spotlight´ lamp, the B 2 lighthouse and the B 3 wall lamp. Different variations of the B3 occur, such as the pendant model. Buzzi's lighting designs have become a prime example of good taste and sophisticated decor.
