The history of Promemoria begins with the high-class woodworking craftsmanship of the Sozzi family. In the late 19th century, the family became renowned for producing exquisite wooden carriages and furniture, maintaining high standards of quality and attention to detail.
One of the Sozzi family members, Romeo, himself a master craftsman, envisioned a brand that would combine traditional Italian woodworking techniques with innovative design and contemporary aesthetic views. Romeo invested all his savings in purchasing the necessary materials, and the workshop began producing upholstered furniture, dining tables, writing desks, cabinets, and coffee tables. Thus, in 1988, Promemoria was established on the picturesque shores of Lake Como in Italy.
One of the distinctive features of Promemoria is the use of only the highest quality materials. Each piece is created with a meticulous selection of premium woods (cypress, sucupira, oak, ebony, and mahogany), metals (bronze, copper, silver, gold), and textiles (silk, linen, wool, cashmere) sourced from different parts of the world.
In 1994, Romeo Sozzi created the company's bestseller—the minimalist Aziza chair, featuring non-removable upholstery in fabric or leather and a beechwood base. The wood for its base is prepared very carefully: it is dried for a long time to achieve the desired texture and color before being put into production.
One of the brand's most famous collections, "Bilou Bilou," perfectly embodies Promemoria's design philosophy. With its clean lines, exquisite materials, and modern details, it has become the symbol of the brand.
Promemoria's rich history, commitment to quality, and innovative spirit have made it a leader in the world of luxury furniture. For those seeking unparalleled elegance and unique creations, Promemoria offers not just furniture but a legacy of artistry and craftsmanship.
