The exposition Permanente dei Mobili Canturini was born on 11 May 1893, an initiative, which allowed the wooden manufacture to make a significant entrepreneurial improvement, thus passing the weak point of an activity, that for a quite number of companies had already arrived at the second generation.
Its establishment brought to the members not only economic benefits but also a new awareness in the sector. Also, for the effects of these kind of initiatives, the Cantù manufacture was considered at the beginning of the XX century at the height of the national production.
Already at the beginning of the 20th century, La Permanente Mobili was seen as the reference cooperative model for all the small manufactures of furniture.
La Permanente Mobili has been one of the greatest ideas, on which the economic development of our territory was based. And with this saying, carved on our Palace, it will still be so.
Within the celebration for the centenary of Carlo De Carli birth, La Permanente Mobili Cantù, with Department of Architectural Design at Politecnico di Milano, presents the reediting of ten furniture designed by him.
