Officine Tamborrino

Officine Tamborrino is a creative workshop and a brand of Scaffsystem based in Via San Giovanni Bosco in Ostuni, Puglia, where it works steel into furniture and micro-architecture. The brand dates from 2012, but its roots go back to the 1950s, when the Tamborrino family opened the first artisan workshop that later became Scaffsystem.

Two lines run in parallel. Officine Tamborrino Design makes furniture and complements in steel for homes and shared spaces, with an aesthetic inspired by the simplicity and linearity of Italian design of the 1950s and an original attitude to colour; Officine Tamborrino Architetture develops modular, flexible, eco-compatible housing modules such as Caseddha, conceived to sit within nature. Collaborations include pieces by Licio Tamborrino and Mario Cucinella.
