Evironment design instead of product design<\/h4>\n

\u201cDuring the 2015 Expo Estel presented the concept of Italian Smart Office”\u00a0<\/em>proudly comments\u00a0Estel Group President Alberto Stella\u00a0 “since then our approach is no longer based just on Product\u00a0Design but focuses on the Environment Design: we have studied and developed systems able\u00a0to communicate with each other, improving employees\u2019 wellbeing and productivity. Everyone who visit\u00a0our showrooms are not faced with a \u201croundup\u201d of products but live an engaging experience\u00a0between functions, shapes and colors<\/em> \u201c.<\/p>\n

Spread the Estel brand and philosophy<\/h4>\n

“In more than 80 years of history we developed a deep know how about design, craftmasnhip and material choices. We are now leaders on the Italian market and we built up our presence on the international market as well, which now represents 50% of our turnover. We worked side by side with famous companies on very important projects, among others Apple Campus in Cupertino.<\/em><\/p>\n

We are fully convinced that this brand new strong partnership will help to spread Estel brand and philosophy all over China, a well recognized and important market.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Make Estel a top brand in the Chinese market<\/h4>\n

Estel commented to OfficeRepublic that the showroom opening was just the first step in the cooperation between the two companies. Future developments in the cooperation could include the start of assembly in China, in order to shorten the delivery times. Ultimately, Estel also expects to be able to produce in China for the Chinese market.<\/p>\n

“The aim is to spread our Italian Smart Office concept and increase brand awareness in order to become top players on chinese market.\u00a0For this is reason Estel has deployed its people and invested financially to share its know-how to Aurora<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

The showroom opening will be atended by the representatives of the major Chinese and Italian\u00a0authorities, as well as customers, architects and local and international media.<\/p>\n
