There has been an important meeting between Carlo Pignatelli SpA and La Falegnami, two fast growing companies with quality and stylistic research as company philosophy.The main point has been their marketing strategy focused, in particular, on product. What does link together the prestigious fashion house and the well-known furnishing company? Many likeness: independence from big holdings; focused business; leadership in its market; company dynamism; similar turnover; development of an internationalization process; high growth in the last years; similar strategies of distribution and organization; policy of brand valorization; high product quality; wide range and innovative ideas; very visited web sites; high investments in communication. "Philosophy on product" is the most important likeness. Every Carlo Pignatelli collection is characterized by strong stylistic connotations, realized thanks to an alchemy of lines, research and exclusive fabrics; on the other hand La Falegnami designs elegant bedrooms projected like "fine and intimate place" in which the complicity of a life in couple is expressed every day. If a deep tailoring connotation is recognizable in Carlo Pignatelli collections, the same tailoring touch can be find in La Falegnami bedrooms and furniture. Life quality is a point of reflection:objects that can touch you are the only ones that can make you choose among several proposals. Our aim: touching with products characterized by real and high quality, according to an innovative and authentic style. These are the companies' goals: investments in testing and creative research in order to protect a market in strong contraction. Next catalogues will present 2006 collections created for people who want to express themselves through the realization of a dream.
