SHERATON SIDEBOARD
SHERATON SIDEBOARD
Designed by Giotto Stoppino & Lodovico Acerbis
Reflecting Giotto Stoppino and Lodovico Acerbis’s role as a leading exponent of modern Italian design, the Sheraton sideboard combines a sleekly groundbreaking shape with innovative functionality.
The winner of the Compasso d’Oro in 1979, the seminal design forms part of the permanent collection at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum, and today sees new editions of the wood cabinet finished with Acerbis’s distinctive glossy lacquers in six new contemporary tones.

DESIGNER GIOTTO STOPPINO
Born in Vigevano in 1926, Giotto Stoppino studied Architecture at Milan and Venice. Since 1953 he has devoted himself almost entirely to architecture, founding together with Gregotti and Meneghetti one of the most culturally committed architects’ offices. Since 1968, with his own independent studio, he has dedicated himself to design. He was president of ADI for the three-year period 1982-1985 and president of the Compasso d’Oro award in 1984. His works are in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, in the Museum für angewandte Kunst in Munich, in the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and the City-Hall in Shanghai.
DESIGNER LODOVICO ACERBIS
Lodovico Acerbis was born in Albino, Bergamo in 1939 and graduated in Economics and Business in Milan. In 1963 he joined his father’s company with the aim of creating design furniture by applying the most advanced technologies and the best materials. Founded in 1870, as a carpentry workshop, the company under his direction reached industrial dimensions and established itself as a leading company in the sector. Lodovico Acerbis combined his work as an industrialist with that of a designer, producing some of the most significant creations of Italian production, often signed together with Giotto Stoppino, with whom he created a fervent creative partnership.
