Ensuring the passage between two rooms, the entrance of an apartment, a house, a monument or town, this element of carpentry, in wood or in metal, has always conveyed a certain art of living since Antique Rome and its opulent palaces. During the French Revolution, this decorative element, creating an opening in a wall, was even the object of a specific tax.

A massive and robust frame enabling to walk in or out a location, closed, ajar, open, equipped with a bell, a gong of a peephole, the door has found its letters of nobility in Italy. In this land where design is at its apex, manufacturers, interior architects and designers have created many prestigious models inspired by a glorious past reinvented with elegance.
