Description

Componibili Bio is the recyclable, 'Greenguard' Certified, version of this 1969 design classic by Anna Castelli Ferrieri.The manufacturing process of this design involved years of extensive research into natural materials and the use of biopolymers uncontaminated by chemical elements or pollutants. The result is the development of a more sustainable material, derived from agricultural production waste (rather than petroleum), which is 'attacked' by mico-organisms to generate a biomass similar to plastic. With a series of processes to refine the composition, the biomass becomes a high quality material which Kartell were enable to experiment with injection and moulding, similar to plastic.

The Componibili Bio can be recycled but is also bio-degradable when disposed of correctly at the end of its life cycle.

Designed to meet various functional needs Componibili will slot into any home setting - be it in the bathroom, bedroom, kitchen or lounge. Each section has an overlapping door which, when opened with its finger hole 'handle', circulates round the inner side of the container.

Designed by

Anna Castelli Ferrieri

Anna Castelli Ferrieri (1918–2006) was an influential Italian architect and designer whose work helped shape modern furniture and industrial design in the post-war era. Trained in architecture at the Politecnico di Milano, she developed a strong interest in how new materials and manufacturing techniques could improve everyday living, particularly through functional, accessible design.

In the late 1940s, she co-founded Kartell alongside her husband Giulio Castelli, playing a pivotal role in defining the company’s design identity. Ferrieri was especially fascinated by the possibilities of plastics, seeing them not as cheap substitutes but as materials capable of precision, durability, and refined aesthetics when used intelligently. Her approach combined technical rigour with a deep understanding of domestic needs.

Among her most enduring creations is the Componibili storage system, introduced in the 1960s, which remains a benchmark of modular, practical design. Throughout her career, Ferrieri balanced architectural thinking with product design, producing objects that were rational, adaptable, and visually understated. Her legacy lives on through designs that continue to be manufactured and widely used, embodying her belief that good design should be both innovative and genuinely useful in everyday life.
