From the 1960s, her first piece of furniture «Sparsul» with very distinctive and modern shapes was produced by the company Poltronova, as was her series for the garden «Locus Solus».
Gae Aulenti furnished her own house with her works such as the «Stringa» sofa. She also developed products for Zanotta such as her ultra light folding chair, the “Aprilina”.
Gae Aulenti worked various materials in a particularly innovative way. So the top of her glass «Giova» lamp can also be used as a vase. As for her sculptural «Rimorchiatore» in lacquered metal, it plays with the envy of vase or ashtray. For Knoll, she made her “Jumbo” table in marble in this architectural purity that characterizes her.
