Unique
pieces

My experience in customization has evolved over time. Back in 1998, feeling the need to furnish the villas of my Italian clients with unique pieces, I founded “Arti Minori”, to enhance the Italian tradition of excellent craftsmanship and offer my clients completely customized and therefore unique interiors.

The success of this philosophy encouraged me to keep on my path of creative research by adding to personalized casegoods, chairs, Murano glass lamps and complements also table silverware, outdoor kitchens and large installations.
This prompted me to expand my business, transforming Arti Minori into “Creations by Patrizia Guiotto”: a wider concept able to better express the great versatility of my creative work.

I have always created small limited editions collections I offer to my most loyal customers, a periodical activity they often demand.
These are special objects such as Murano glass vases, home accessories or installations.

Sometimes, certain areas within a home, in an outlet or even in an office, lack a leading element, which acts as a protagonist. It may also happen that an outdated interior or a monotonous ambience unveils the need for special elements that transform the static nature of the context, giving it dynamism and a new look.

In cases like these, special pieces are important to lend personality to the interiors. That’s why I periodically enjoy designing new small collections for limited production.

Those who love their work also know how to be self-ironic. And in fact, many years ago I decided to take a challenge from a dear family friend who told me: ‘you do not eat pasta because you didn’t design it’ (at that time I wasn’t really a big pasta-eater despite my nationality!). And so I designed the pasta using my logo (the art-decò rose), which Pastificio Marella still successfully produces and which I have often given to my international customers as a funny present.

Customers love this special pasta because it is an excellent quality product that is very decorative too. I am happy I designed it: food is culture and being able to spread a bit of Italian gastronomy abroad is a pleasure.
