Studio Kairos
In classical Greek Kairos means: right point, right place, right time, right measure. In ancient Greece it was the concept that also defined the manner of operating, of designing. Kairos was, for instance, the choise of the right place for the construction of a house and, at the same time, the waiting for the right moment to do the works; this balanced combination of place and time guaranteed the right measure, a good result. Inspired by this concept, Studio Kairos, was founded in 1980. It works on industrial design and development, as well in architecture and interior design.
Massimo Bonetti, Turin 1949, Giuseppe Manente, Mestre (Ve) 1947, Abramo Mion, Mirano (Ven) 1951, after separate working experience with industrial concerns, academic institutions and as free-lance operators, founded Kairos in 1980, which principally operates in the field of industrial design. Kairos in Classic Greek means the right point, the right place, the right degree. In ancient Greece, it was also a concept that defined a way of operating or designing. Kairos was, for example, the choice of the right place to build a house and, at the same time, the time one had to wait until the right moment to begin construction. This balance combination of place and time is intended to apply to every new Kairos project.
