Visual handbook of metal profiles: a unique editorial tribute to the expressive potential of aluminium.

SETTIMO MILANESE, MILANO, ITALY, November 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- FBSprofilati, an Italian family-owned company producing decorative aluminium profiles and aluminium rolling shutters since 1999, proudly announces its participation in Piccolo prontuario visivo in ordine sparso di profili metallici (Visual handbook of metal profiles): the first editorial project that explores the aesthetic and functional qualities of metal profiles through a unique visual language and an emotional storytelling.

Developed by the Italian design studio Martinelli Venezia and published by Forward Edizioni, the project celebrates the creative potential of aluminium and the core values of craftsmanship, innovation, and tradition that define FBSprofilati's philosophy.

Design as an emotional journey
Described by the authors, Carolina Martinelli and Vittorio Venezia, as “a book-object”, the Visual handbook of metal profiles is an illustrated journey into the beauty of metal profiles, presented at a 1:1 scale and printed in grayscale. With geometric forms becoming narrative tools, the publication inspires architects and designers by immersing them in a unique and thought-provoking experience.

“This project embodies our ethos: transforming ideas, concepts, and emotions into decorative aluminium shapes while blending artisanal expertise with modern design,” says Giovanni Favagrossa, CEO of FBSprofilati. “Our collaboration with Gio Tirotto, designer and our art director since 2019, is central to unlocking the full creative potential of this versatile material.”

A tribute to Italian design and tradition
Marco Sammicheli, Director of the Italian Design Museum at Triennale Milano, calls the book “an illustrated homage, almost mannerist, to the craft of design.” This project highlights FBSprofilati’s dedication to Italian design, blending tradition, innovation, and bespoke craftsmanship — values rooted in the identity of the Milanese family-owned company and its senior figures, that have been refined roll-forming technology for over 55 years.
