At a time of great global complexity and sense of insecurity, Agape’s congenital optimism turns all these question marks into certainties and, with unwavering faith in its own DNA (whose distinctive codes are sobriety, elegance, experimentation and quality), now proudly presents the “Mangiarotti” collection, a selection of projects by this great architect, who has been a treasured friend and designer of objects, which are now evergreen classics of Italian design.
Agape's passion for the culture of design, and the long collaboration with Angelo Mangiarotti, culminate in the establishment of Agapecasa, dedicated to the re-edition of the original and timeless pieces of one of the greatest masters of post-war Italian design and architecture.
Some of his thoughts on living are now being exclusively incorporated in Agapecasa, a brand which, for this reason and thanks also to the work of other designers who will gradually be involved in the project, will soon become a fundamental benchmark for modern-day furnishing.
COLLECTIONAL is a first of its kind providing Italian Furniture in Dubai.
THE BRAND
Established in 1973 by the Benedini family in Verona and subsequently relocated to Mantua, Agape owes much of its aesthetics, innovation and passion to its crucial geographical position between Milan, Veneto and Emilia.

In Incas only the two inclined planes bear the stresses due to the weight of the plan, while the vertical ones do not collaborate in the construction system. Incas is now also available in other stone materials and with suitable finishes, today for the first time it finds an unprecedented and sophisticated solution in solid wood, demonstrating how every great idea can be further developed without losing strength and meaning.

Agapecasa
A furnishing system made entirely of wood, imagined and patented more than fifty years ago, and which still has not ceased to amaze for the versatility and functionality it offers. Much loved at the time of its debut, published by the main international magazines of the time, present in many designer furnishings of those years, the “Cavalletto” system returns to new life today.

Agapecasa
While working on prefabricated concrete elements that can be produced on an industrial scale for architecture, with witty intelligence, Mangiarotti chooses the ancient technique of "lost wax" casting for the construction of his first bronze table. Used mainly in the making of sculptures, this particular technique makes each piece unique as the mold must be destroyed to extract the product of the casting.

With the sink of the same name, the new bathtub with an architectural imprint marks the debut of the collaboration between Agape and the French architect. In the construction of the tub, the tops appear simply juxtaposed, thanks to an ingenious system of invisible joints. Surfaces that touch each other and, with a design that is extremely attentive to the inclination of the tops that become the back, transform the tub into a comfortable nest where you can sit, lie down, read, relax. An abstract object which by contrast enhances, like the washbasin, the almost baroque splendor of marble.

Loico is a program of interlocking bookcases with modular measures both in height and in width, an impressive result of Mangiarotti's research on materials and technologies.

Agapecasa
Together with the bathtub of the same name, this new series of architectural washbasins marks the launch of the collaboration between Agape and the French architect. Thanks to an ingenious system of invisible joints, the surfaces appear to simply approach one another side by side. The effect is both imposing and light, essential and material. The washbasins are available in the countertop, wall-mounted and freestanding versions. All channeled thanks to the suitably inclined plane of the basin, they combine vertical and horizontal surfaces for a rigorous architectural structure. A towel bar or storage component may be added.

Agapecasa
An armchair with an admittedly architectural flavor, still highly expressive and happily functional today. Here the classic inverted V design, which characterizes the system, becomes the profile of a leg at the top of which the armrest finds an ideal support point, in an overall profile that helps to streamline this small domestic presence, making it even more elegant, dry and austere: in a word, distilled from over fifty years of sedimentation, absolute.

Agapecasa
In M, form and elegant solution design an extremely stable table, the first example in Mangiarotti's work of using marble for the construction of furnishing objects for the domestic environment. The M marbles are offered with a particular finish that best enhances the characteristics of the stone material, caressing and supporting the rounded profiles of this “sculpture” for the interior architecture of exemplary proportions.

In the Tre 3 project, a sheet of leather is inserted into the higher rear leg which gently draws the backrest and seat as it descends. A reinterpretation of a type of chair already reinterpreted on other occasions by the protagonists of Nordic design, the "3T" brings Angelo Mangiarotti closer to the work of another great master of the twentieth century, Carlo Scarpa, whose lesson influenced all the authors who saw in the attention to the details a universe to be explored and honored.

A few years after the project of the SK207 table, convinced by the mechanical characteristics and the high corrosion resistance of the material, Angelo Mangiarotti returns to work with bronze. With the CAP53 series of vases, the ancient technique of "lost wax" casting returns to its original field of application, the creation of sculptures.

In More, at the upper end, at the point of contact with the top, the section of the leg becomes truncated cone, and offers itself to the joint with the top, substantially re-proposing the solution experimented with the "Eros" table, that of the "joint to severity".

Cenote is a collection of washbasins designed by Patricia Urquiola that reveals a magnetic presence full of material and sensory vibrations. Far removed from mainstream decorative style, the refractory clay surface is carefully worked to leave the exterior deliberately rough. Surprisingly, the enameled interior is pleasantly smooth to the touch and shiny. An evocative play of contrasts between roughness and smoothness joins artisan handiwork to make each washbasin a unique, distinctive, and valuable object. The washbasins will be available in two different sizes in dark lava stone and refractory clay in a red or dark grey finish. The interior is available in four different colors.
