CREATED IN FLORENCE INSPIRED BY THE WORLD
IDEA OF HOME
Devon&Devon is an exclusive way of enjoying your home. A quality choice whose roots lie in its love of raw materials and the extraordinary manufacturing skills of its craftsmen. An expression of taste, made with timeless products that recover and reinterpret, with an attentive focus on the present, the best European tradition and design of the Twentieth-Century. From its headquarters in Florence and its stores across the world, the company offers everything you need to make every house a home to be enjoyed and to which you cannot wait to return.
LEGACY OF FLORENCE
The unique, original and recognisable Devon&Devon design is the result of a wise blend of functionality and aesthetics, a mixture of contemporary design and inspirations from the past. The company was founded in 1989 in Florence. The city’s extraordinary craftsmanship, artistic and architectural tradition is the ideal basis for the brand’s love of quality raw materials and its mastery of handcrafted processes, celebrated across the world since the days of ancient crafts guilds; for the harmony of the geometries and the sobriety of the shapes and colours, all inspired by the decorations selected by great architects for the churches and buildings that have made the city unique.
INSPIRATIONS FROM THE WORLD
Since its origins, Devon&Devon has merged inspirations from the Florentine Renaissance with the atmospheres of European tradition and with the charm of architectures and the most refined American design of the 1900s. Traditions forgotten or considered outdated are continuously rediscovered, reinterpreted and translated into creations with unique taste and timeless charm. The Devon&Devon contemporary classic, with its extraordinary formal cleanliness, is a distillate of many ways of interpreting beauty. Far-off suggestions in space and in time are its inspirations: the Victorian Age and the French Eighteenth-Century; Neoclassicism and American Art Deco; Art Nouveau and the Jazz Age; La Dolce Vita and Hollywood; the Belle Epoque and the Fifties.
COLLECTIONS
Devon&Devon accompanies the design choices of its clients with exclusive, complete and coordinated interior design solutions and with extraordinary attention to every detail of the project. The collections include products for the bathroom (sanitaryware, bathtubs, showers, taps, mixers and shower heads; furniture and consoles) and solutions dedicated to the whole home, with marble, ceramic and wood flooring and wall coverings; wallpaper and furniture; mirrors, lamps and wall lights and an entire boutique of objects for the home and lifestyle products inspired by the brand’s iconic style and a philosophy of living made up of details that make the difference.
LOVE FOR QUALITY
The value of Devon&Devon authenticity is the result of its love for design and dedication to the quality of the raw materials. Of the excellence of the production processes and the passion for the mastery of the craftsmen and for the talent of those who work with us. A large part of the production takes place in Tuscany, the home of thousand-year old manufacturing know-how. The other small production units, all European, are found in Italy and England: in each district Devon&Devon develops the skills of those who, every day, select, sculpt, work, polish, model, decorate and finish every product. This wealth of knowledge handed down through the generations is the most credible guarantee of unparalleled quality and value.
RE-INVENTION OF SPACE
In three decades Devon&Devon has invented and reinvented products that have forever changed the way of enjoying the bathroom. In 1989, the built-in era, it offered the first Victorian design bathtub and the bathroom ceased being a functional location only to become a beautiful and unique environment dedicated to personal care. In 1991 the first 30 cm diameter shower head came onto the scene: it seemed like an exaggeration, but became a universal trend. Since then, it has been all about re-invention: the console (until then used only in entertaining spaces in the most important residences) made its appearance in the bathroom; wood panelling is re-proposed as ceramic wall- covering. Devon&Devon’s history - made of recovered traditions and redefined functions – is a continuous declaration of courageous anti- conventionalism. After the bathroom, the time has come to rethink the home. And Devon&Devon is ready to change it all.
VALUE OF THE PROJECT
Founded by two architects and now part of the Italcer Group, Devon&Devon has the culture of the project in its DNA. Due to this, alongside its broad offer of exclusive collections, the company offers to its clients the design of made-to-measure solutions, markedly custom-made. It is a unique service, which Devon&Devon is able to offer thanks to the short supply chain of its highly specialist workers strongly oriented to quality and with an internal team of architects to coordinate them, closely following every phase of the creation. “Devon&Devon Tailored Interiors” is the most effective response for private clients, professionals and contractors requiring our excellence to be exclusive and customisable.
