PORADA

Porada, founded in 1968 by Luigi Allievi in Cabiate, Italy, grew from a family tradition of chair-making dating back to 1948. Renowned for its passion for solid wood and exquisite craftsmanship, the company seamlessly blends aesthetic elegance with functional design. Collaborating with top designers such as Marconato & Zappa, Carlo Ballabio, Emmanuel Gallina, and Patrick Jouin, Porada creates timeless furniture pieces ranging from sofas and tables to storage systems and accessories. Sustainability plays a key role in its philosophy, highlighted by the management of its own certified ash wood forests in Burgundy, France, where 8,000 new trees were planted in 2024. Driven by a dedicated team and a commitment to innovation—embodied by the annual Porada International Design Award—the brand continues to represent Italian elegance through a perfect balance of tradition and contemporary style.
