The 20th Century Design
The modern interests not only has elevated certain pieces into the realm of luxury goods, celebrated for their historical significance, craftsmanship,
and ability to add prestige to a collection or interior that is no longer for decorative purposes, but as a status symbol and investment.
THE HISTORY

Berlin Showroom, 2025
1996
All started in Brussels when I realized how many designer objects I have had collected, and it grew in volume weekly.
As working as designer for a showroom brand and frustrated with their limitless,
I decided to sell my private design collection that occupied almost 100m2 of my town house basement.
1997
I have launched "Scandinavian Modern" way before the trend of Danish and Nordic design.
2002
"Scandinavian Modern" has become "Galerie Piovesan".
I started to dedicate more attention and space to Italian and French design.
2015
I felt that the time has come to move abroad and grow.
2017
The step was done, and I moved the business to Berlin.
2025
After eight years, we are feeling very limited in Germany and our ambitions have grown to move on.
We are looking for new horizons, new markets, new associates worldwide, where we can show our full potential.
