Fiam - Company Profile

FIAM was born from one man’s passion for glass.

Vittorio Livi founded FIAM in 1973. FIAM designs, develops and manufactures items of furniture in curved glass, creating them through a combination of craftsmanship and industrial processes. Glass is a complex material,it can be both solid and fragile, natural and artificial, ancient and industrial all at the same time. Advantages for use in furniture include being environmentally-friendly and hygienic. Young Vittorio Livi saw the practical qualities of glass and its potential to excel in the world of fine design. His vision was glass being used to produce items of furniture which would be astonishingly solid yet beautifully transparent; that would be untouched by the passage of time and fashions. From its earliest days, FIAM focused on innovation as the driving force for achieving these aims. This innovation would proceed on three fronts:

Skilled craftsmanship

Design

Research
