Unifor

UniFor has designed and produced furniture systems for the contemporary office since 1969, when it was founded as part of the Molteni Group. From its headquarters and factory in Turate, near Como, the company has traced direct lines to the major international centres since the 1970s, supplying museums, libraries, banks, corporations and institutions worldwide. Its identity is a vocation for architecture: serial products, custom executions and bespoke fit-outs for environments of high complexity.

The factory is also a laboratory, where advanced processes coexist with artisanal know-how and feasibility is studied before a project enters production. UniFor’s history is a history of collaborations, with Foster + Partners, Jean Nouvel, Renzo Piano, Álvaro Siza, OMA, Snøhetta and Michele De Lucchi, whose intuitions defined new functions for workplaces.
