Soft lines and simple geometry describe the contours of the Veretta chair, characterized by the feature ring in curved solid beechwood that surrounds the seat and houses the backrest. The backrest can be padded at the front, while the rear shows off the natural wood and the distinctive joint with the seat ring, which remains open: a small portion of material is in fact removed from the circle already worked in a rounded shape to highlight the two terminals which are crafted by hand.
Born in Pordenone in 1980, she graduated in Architecture from IUAV Venice University. In 2005 she started to collaborate with prestigious design studios, focusing on interior and product design. In 2010 she moved to Milan, where she founded her brand Attico Design. She has received numerous awards and international recognition. With the aim of starting a new entrepreneurial chapter, in continuity with its history, materials and processes typical of the local territory, in 2019 Billiani entrusted Celestino with the artistic direction of the company.

Archetype-A
Archetype-A is a wooden chair designed by Mario Alessiani that celebrates the company’s origins and know-how. The design is as simple as possible. Nothing more than four legs, a seat and a back.
Fleuron
In the Fleuron chair and lounge chair by Constance Guisset the rationality of the design, based on the idea of a buttress that reinforces a wall, meets the softness of a curved line.
RAQUETTE
The Cristina Celestino designed Raquette collection pays homage to the ancient technique of intertwining wooden slats.
CROISSANT
Billiani opened up to the world of upholstery with a rich collection that includes side, arm and lounge chairs, barstool, sofa, pouf, bench and table.
DOLL
The wooden Doll chair, Emilio Nanni’s first commissioned design for Billiani, expresses essentiality with grace and softness.
EDELWEISS
The Edelweiss collection of chairs, stools and lounge chairs is the result of Philippe Bestenheider’s desire to come to terms with wood.
COROLLA
Cristina Celestino designs a lounge collection with soft and harmonious shapes. The rounded volumes are lightened by the worked wood base, Billiani’s stylistic code.
Flow
Flow is a short compendium of the history of the chair – a perfect combination of Italian tradition and the Scandinavian aesthetic of the 1950s and 1960s.
Puccio
The Puccio collection started life based on milking stools, perfectly designless and designer-free seating which, thanks to its functionality, has survived unchanged through the centuries.
MARIMBA
For the unprecedented combination of wood and leather, Marimba is a novelty in the Billiani collection.
Stella
A solid and reassuring chair with a back that embraces, ending with two decisive cuts inspired by the points of a star.
