Studio 65

Studio 65 (Studiosessanta5) is an Italian architecture studio.

It was founded in 1965 in Turin as an avant-garde experimental collective of architects, designers, poets and artists. Its founders were Franco Audrito, Roberta Garosci, Enzo Bertone, Paolo Morello, and Paolo Rondelli. [1] 

Studio 65 played an important role in the Radical movement in Italian design in 1960-70s. Some of the most famous products designed by them is the Bocca sofa[2] and Capitello chair[3].  Other notable projects include the Leonardo sofa, which became one of the icons of the Radical Design movement, interior design of the Casa Canella apartment, the Palladian Villa, as well as the Barbarella night club.[1] Other members of the Radical design movement from Turin were LIBIDARCH, Ceretti-Derossi-Rosso, Guido Drocco, Franco Mello, and Piero Gilardi. [4]

Currently the firm has offices in Turin, Jeddah, Riyad and Bali. [1]
