The Malanotti family goes back to the 11th century. Patrons of art and culture, they traded fine silks and made fine wine (in honor of the family now designated Piave Malanotte DOCG) in the Val di Sole, in Treviso and in Venice. Rooted in the tradition of the Malanotti family, Mario & Casa continues to use only the finest fabrics and materials.

Mario Gagliardi, designer and founder of Mario & Casa, is the grandson of Eugenie Malanotti. Mario's creative approach was formed during his time as a student of design legends Alessandro Mendini and Richard Sapper.

The skills of our craftspeople are based on centuries-old knowledge of materials and techniques.

From the first sketch to the last stitch, our objects are handmade with skill and care. For us, design is not only the artefact, but the fabric of relationships between times and places, individuals and communities.
