Catalano: A HISTORY OF DESIGN
«The success of Catalano arises from a deep-seated ethic sense of working and a great team spirit.
The respect for values comes first, even before the profit, and represents the reasons that made the company grow up so fast. The "ethical design" - intended as quality of the project - has a cultural, economic and strategic value only if it expresses true contents, and it is not meant to be only a 'self-celebration’ of designers»
